Rubbing on back side of front fender

As my lift has settled out, I'm finding when going more than 5 mph, down hill, while articulating, my front tire tend to rub on the fender, on the back side of the wheel well. I'm easily clearing the body mount thankfully, but not the fender probably due to the fact I have FJ Cruiser wheels, which have less positive offset.

Any tips on eliminating this? Its not high priority as its only in very specific scenarios, but it would be nice to get rid of. Can I trim the fender or move it back somehow? Will adjustable UCAs or LowPro LCAs help? Just trying to figure out my options... Might be as simple as having someone do a better job on the alignment.

What are your current alignment specs right now?

My money is on chopping whatever is running or just dealing with the rub, although I have 34s and I know ill never go back to stock tires.

I'd have to go back and look, I've only got 2 degrees of caster.

I guess I'm not sure how to chop that part of the fender... Was hoping someone had.

Know what you mean about not going back to stock. I've got the 33.1" 255/80/17s and love them.
