No, that's what its there for, and offroading its normal to hit them. Removing or shortening the bump stop would cause issues to all of those.

Because of the motion ratio of the suspension geometry you can't directly compare distance from a bump stop to total wheel travel. If you know the motion ratio you could do the math but its not going to solve anything without knowing the compression limit of the bump stop. You mentioned the tires are the same as OE sizes, but every manufacturer makes tires slightly different within the same standard tire size. Look up the actual overall diameter for your original factory tires and compare to the actual diameter of what you have. More than likely they're slightly taller which is why they rub, but it doesn't appear to be doing significant damage just very light rubbing, which I wouldn't be concerned about.

Keep in mind that not all wheels are compatible with hammer on weights. So be sure your wheels have the type of flange that will work before you insist a tire shop use them. -

Thank you @Gaurav -

It could be due to the placement of the weights, if they’re in the area closest to the brake caliper they will be the most likely to be knocked off by debris. We have similar issues on race cars due to rubber from the track, we use Aluminum tape to cover the weights, and also avoid placing the weights in the area of the wheel which has the least amount of clearance. You also have to make sure the area is very clean before sticking on the weights and tape.- 15 replies
