Default rubbing tire

I just installed one of my 15" rims with 29" trxus tires and when i turn the tire all the way the tire barely rubs the front lower bumper on my disco 2. Should i trim it or leave it as it is? You can hear it in the cab when it scrapes. I stood outside while someone else turned the tire and it just barely hits.

Sounds like it is time for a lift, that is alot of tire for a D2 with no lift.

Let it go, as the tires wear down they will stop rubbing when you turn.

You can adjust your steering stops so you can't turn that far, cut the bumper, lift it, or just wait till you rub the tire off. Your choice..
