Default Rub out on Fender.

I rubbed my inner rear fender and fish tailed as I was going around a corner where the road elevation changes. It also put a nice cut in the tire and damaged the fender wall. I have been running a 255/35/19 rear with a 20mm spacer. I had no issue with rubbing at all prior to this. I just installed new kyb's KG4732 and KG4731 shocks with 275/35/19 hankooks rs3. The kyb seems to ride smoother but softer. If I stack the stock and kyb bushing will it make a stiffer ride? Will running 275 rear without a spacer still run a risk of rubbing the fender walls?

I am running 173/35/19 Michelin AS3's with no spacers and no rubbing issues on a SRT-6 with stock suspension. Not sure if you will still have an issue if you are lowered. Search the forum, there is lots of info here about tire sizes and issues.
