Default Tire rubbing on CS fenders with Moonbeam

Ran in to an interesting problem and just wanted to get some input before breaking out the cutoff wheel.

Mounted my CS fenders and moonbeam arches. No problems. Fitment is top notch.

Got my tires mounted yesterday so I threw the wheels on today. Not giving it a second thought I pull it out of the garage to get a good look. Turned the wheel an hear a gut wrenching crack. Get out an see damage to the vent on the fender. Fortunately I hadn't put the carbon vent on so it is just in the fiberglass. Realize the tire is catching the edge of the fender vent.

The wheels were bought with the specs provided by CS and the tires are 285/30r20(26.7" diameter) Since the car isn't aligned I messed around with the settings. Nothing prevents it from touching, no matter how extreme.

So I figure I am left with the option of cutting the fenders and carbon vents to allow for the tire.

Any other thoughts?
