Tire rubbing on CS fenders with Moonbeam

the carbon signal specs are definitely not intended for your setup. you have a pretty square tire/wheel fitment, and you're rubbing at such a tall height. A couple fingers gap from top of tire to fender from eyeballing that picture

what are they expecting you to run? like a 255/30/20? That would be 26.0 inch diameter, but that only gives you .35 inch extra clearance, which still doesn't seem like enough

so even if you stretched tires on their suggested specs, it seems like you'd still hit that part of the fender

which is why i suspect some wierd alignment setting
