Tire rub on fender

Ok I looked and seen some similar post about this but no fixes. My right rear tire rubs the fender when I hit a dip in the road. Had 235s but it wore through so I got 225s still the same how can I fix this problem b/c the left side is fine never rubs but the right looks like it may stick out a little more. I have CM lower springs and rims are enkei EV 5. Please help. Thanks.

The passenger side pokes out about 1/2 inch more. Thanks GM.

Solution - Roll the fenders.

Get proper sized wheels or raise the car a little, don't blame GM.

Why couldn't we trim the hub/backing plate mating surface a little and pull that wheel in for you stance guys? Or space out the other side and change offset accordingly.

Why not? Theyre the ones who built it all sideways lmao. You would have to shave the hub quite a bit. Easiest is rolling fenders or trimming them.
