Default Recessed Front Mudflaps

Got my 2" level, Nitto 275/70/18 on method 18x9" all on my truck today and has minor rubbing on the front mud flaps. I'll take them off for the time being but is there any decent recessed mudflaps that won't rub but will protect the ide of my truck?

Btw for anyone wondering, tires don't run on crash bars. But I have yet to flex much so time will tell but I doubt I'll have any issues

My truck is a 2015 XLT with front and rear factory mud flaps. I assume they are the same as the ones on the sports? Can you post up a pic of what you want and I can compared it to what I have

Why not just trim the mud flap? I was getting some rubbing and just trimmed the inside of the mud flaps. You can't tell looking at the truck that the inside was trimmed.

what offset did you go with for your wheels? pics of the space between the tire and the mudflap would help others in this same boat as well.
