Default X308 wheels spacers

Si I installed spacers on front and rear. Now both rub occasionally when turning slightly and definitely when I hit a pot hole. Tires are sliced a bit and rubber peeling. I might try gluing a 1" block onto rear steel thing to act as a stop. Or should I consider stiffer shocks?
Anybody "ROLL" their fenders to resolve issue?

I rolled front and rear to clear 255/285's X100 20's comfortably, lowered about 30mm. Easy to do with a heat gun and generic $40 tool from Mr. Bezos. Small intervals is the key, and you may need to mod the tool to fit the hub.
