Default Tires hitting front bumper 95 4x4

So I just graduated and as a graduation present my parents bought me 32.5inch tires for my stock suspension truck. They are beautiful, however, when I take a sharper turn the tires hit my front bumper. I was wondering if there is anything I can do that isn't going to break the bank? Heading to college so I can't afford anything overly expensive

It happens with larger tires at full lock. People trim the back edges of their bumpers. If you wanted to lift the front end and level it with the rear, you'll want to check out moog 824 or 844 coil springs in the front. I think they run about $60-70 for the pair, then you'll probably need an alignment.

Trim the bumper or use washers on the mount bolts to move it forward a little. Or both.

What width are they? On my Crome bumper I had to use a few washers to push it ahead then I trimmed the lip slightly to fit 33x12.5, and that was supposedly with a level as well.

Here's a picture to give an idea
