Has anyone ridden Schwalbe 2.1 Thunder Burts on this frame for a longe period of time and can share their opinion on the clearance?

I now sanded away al the overspray in every critical area, changed the UDH hanger and also tried different torques when tightening the hanger. All of it with limited success, the difference got slightly less, but not enough.
I also measured my wheels axle which comes out at 142.5. I have a fair amount of play as well with this before tightening the througaxle - so the washer solution will be my next try.
How did you manage the hanger to still sit flat with the washer inbetween? And how thic is that washer?

Have same problem in L frame
'patched' by adding a washer between the UDH and frame, as I have done in the past with a Scott Spark having similar problem
In my Mondince L frame I could notice that rear hub spacing was little larger. When axle is not tightened, the spacing is equal. When you start tightening, because the right chainstay has different flexibility than the left side, it shifts the wheel gap.
By adding the washer you minimize this effect when tightening. Of course washer can't be very thick to avoid thread problem at UDH

You may try measure the rim, not the tyre.
Tyre tolerances are ... well, not good.
1 mm offset at a lever of 350 mm is not a lot.
Any cycling industry itself is not well known for good tolerances.
