Any suggestions on what to do to fix this issue?

You better do something I had one disintegrate shortly after that started. Have you changed tire size or rims?
My fiberglass fenders started to sag a little, causing similar rub. I placed flat washer on each lug as a spacer, b/n hub and wheel, stopped rubbing.
It sounds like the axle beam has come apart inside, the TDE axles seem to only last about 5 years
Most have very little clearance to start with. I had one that the inner board had warped with time.
Might be time to replace or figure some way to put a brace between the inner board and outer fender.
Side note--- most newer trailers have replaced the board with some type of plastic or fiberglass... Not all the plastic ones are straight to start with
If they are original then I suggest you replace the axles with new.
There was welding issues on that line back in the day. Only visible when the road armor is peeled away.
Are they still oil filled?
New hubs will be Vortex grease filled.

When my buddy’s TDE axle started rubbing the inner fender, it was the axle beam coming apart inside. He’s on his 3rd or 4th axle on his 06 trailer.
