It requires being a bit a bit handy and ideally a rivet setter, but on 
those SKS fenders you can drill out the rivets on those brackets and 
remount them on the outside of the fender instead. Good for tight 
clearance, but also on some fender and tire combinations that bracket will 
catch enough water to cause its own splashing problems, and remounting it 
outside makes that less an issue. I picked up the idea from this old post, 
which sadly the pictures have gone AWOL on, but the web archive still has 
the relevant useful one at 
least:

I've got SKS P35 Longboard  fenders over 28mm  Gravelkings on one bike.  
Continental 28mm GP4000's where  too big and rubbed on the metal stay strap 
the runs under the fender. I adjusted the fender line to get a bit more 
clearance there and put the Gravelkings back on. I get a bit of rub when I 
get out of the saddle to mash up a hill. I am not a small person though.  I 
have  had thoughts of putting larger tires on the bike and larger  split 
fenders.
