After a weekend on the dragon, I rub on the driver side rear under extreme conditions while the right rear is golden. I have the same size wheel and same tire and size.

I'm curious what your experiences are.

I'm thinking my driver's side rear might just be slightly lower than the passenger rear which is the reason.

I'm assuming you mean the right rear is golden. And if so, yes that's been my experience. I had to go to greater lengths to get the driver side rear to clear than the passenger under full compression

That's interesting. I wonder why.

I've been under there and can't seem to find what the hell it's rubbing on. I understand it making contact with the fender liner under hard compression but during hard cornering (close to the limit) getting some rubbing as well, but only on that side.

Yes, right rear is fine. Driver's rear still experiencing rubbing but only under extreme cornering conditions. Passenger rear under same conditions, golden.

There are two brackets under there that come extremely close to the wheel in this size that I assumed might be making contact when the chassis flexes but that doesn't seem to be the case as there was no indication, and if so, why wouldn't both sides do it as both are just millimeters from the inner rim of the wheel.

Mine was rubbing on the inner fender sheet metal at the 12 o'clock position.

How much was it to get the fenders rolled? Mines are rubbing but a camber adjustment may do the fix.

Depends on the shop. Mine was $100 per fender.

Hot damn, that is pricey. I'm a noob when it comes to suspension so I can't say much.

I'd call it minimal. But still noticeable.
