Default Bumper tab eating away my tires

Hi everyone, I am currently having issues with my bumper tap grinding through my tires everytime I hit a dip. I know I can take the route where I cut the tap off and add a quick release but I really dont wana makes holes.

Is there anyway to bend/hammer the tap so that it doesnt hit the tire when I bottom out? Would anyone have pictures of how theirs look?

What wheel & tire specs are you running? (If you don't mind me asking).

There should be a sticky above for relocating the bumper tab , as well as heating the liners to get those out of the way as well.
