    I installed the BDS 3” leveling kit. Had town fair install new wheels and tires which are rubbing at nearly full turn. Left is rubbing on mud flap and right is rubbing on front fender.
    The wind deflection piece were removed too.

    One way you can get Coachbuilder bumper shims or DIY with washers. There are four bilts on each side that hold the bumper in place. The premade kit shims are 1/4" each so you can shim it out 1/2" total. Should give you enough clearance.

    I thought about that but honestly thought the 285 should fit

    Welcome to the forum.

    Take the mudflap off.
    Is the front rubbing the actual fender or the plastic liner inside?
    If it's just the liner, heat it up gently with a heat gun and see if you can create more clearance..
