They aren't installed too high. I'm sitting on 24.5 rubber, and the angle of this particular dock was just a bit too steep. There is only about a 2.5" - 3" clearance between the top of my tires and the bottom of the fenders (might be a little less, might be a little more). It was nothing the shop did. As it was, it barely touched the fenders. Had it bent them or dented them, then I would be more concerned about their height, but it only scratched them.
This is one of the reasons they install a 5th wheel riser on fiberglass full fenders. If I weren't on 24.5 rubber, I would probably have had them put a riser on my 5th wheel, but that extra height would have likely put my trailer over 13' 6" in the front.
