I doubt that a few shims under the core support are what’s bringing the fenders down enough to cause rubbing.

Going one tire size smaller is probably the easiest way to solve this issue.

Putting shims under the core support now means realigning the front sheetmetal. While it would be a nice thing to do it’s opening a can of worms and you may end up chipping the paint during the process.
