You could consider doing a 2" body lift. That will move your fenders up out of the way and would reduce your chances of rubbing. Other than that you're pretty much limited to trimming. Even new shocks are only going to reduce the problem, not fix it. Off-road you'll still be flexing the suspension pretty good and will most likely rub. Especially with AT or MT tires.
By the way, I love those wheels. They look really good black like that.

I've debated about a body lift but I don't have the tools to do it myself so I'd have to get it installed. I got a quote for $500 (install + parts). I'd also like to get some new stiffer shocks. Perhaps once I get a little more expendable cash I'll get it done.
Does the extra 2" really give you that much more clearance?

The carpet in the back was pretty messed up so I started to remove a patch and realized the whole mat underneath was soaking wet so I decided to remove all the carpet and put a rubber mat down.

So I was debating about painting the chrome strip black and after seeing how well dustinhxc's Jimmy looked with the black strip I decided to do it.
Also did a little off roading and got the truck a little dirty :
