It was a while ago I got hooked up with Woods' Rubi-Tubes that add a tube-rail to the stock Rubicon rock sliders (similar to the Mopar Enhanced rails). Since I was getting them re-powdercoated, I took the opportunity to trim them about 1.5 inches, and to angle them similar to the angle of the fenders. Welded on a piece of steel rather than the plastic plugs, which wouldn't fit the new angle.
I finally got around to trimming the pinch seam that was hanging out there like a knife blade ready to slice into my 37" Goodyears. Cut it off with an air cutoff wheel and filled the gaps with JB-Weld, primed and painted black (which makes it hard to see in the pics, and in person)
Rubi-Tubes:

Pinch Seam trim showing the angle and improved tire clearance:

The best pic I have showing the welded on end caps to the rails, and the final finish of the trimmed pinch seam. There is a small hole at the bottom of the metal end-cap so water can drain out of the rails.

Thanks to Woods for the Rubi-Rails and the help getting them welded and powder coated.
