ya, that's why i need to check again, the funny thing is that Im not the one having this same prob. one of my friend also having the same specs of the tire and the most of the rubbing is only on the right rear tire. he just put a stopper on his spring and the rubbing is gone during uneven surface.

That is odd that you are rubbing on that set up. On 8" wide wheel, +20 on 195s I barely rubbed. I was pm 15s but my fender gap is non existant so I should be rubbing a lot more than you if you're rubbing already.

I did have the same thing you describe where only my rear driver tire rubbed which was caused by the seating postion combined with the lower spring rate in the rear.

Try rolling/pulling the fenders

Mind taking some closer pics of your wheel/tire and fender? Shouldn't be rubbing too badly (if at all) with +40 unless your rims are super wide.
