I'm running 18X10 in rims with a 54 mm offset and 275/35 tires and had the same issue as what you're having. With small dips, bumps, etc the tires would rub the inner fender well. I did 2 things fix this:

1) Pulled of the rim to see where the tires where making contact with the inner fender well. I then clearanced these areas, which means I took a hammer and beat the crap out of these areas. After that I sprayed a little undercoating to cover the hammer marks.

2) I replaced the rear springs with stock-height king springs (higher spring rate). Yes the car rode a little rougher, but nothing like after I installed the drag shocks

I hope this helps.
