How does the spacing compare the the drivers side?
Maybe your fender needs adjustment as well? Maybe the door opening is off? The service manual for my '53 talks about checking body alignment, which included the door openings. Seems to me if your door is rubbing against the fender, and if the other three sides have good spacing, then the fender is probably the culprit. My body guy says to work from the back of the car to the front when working on body panels. I also noted that when I replaced the body mounts I needed to re align my doors, and that they were better.

Hope your car is on the GROUND.
If it's on jackstands... fuggedaboutit. One time I saw coincidentally also a 55 clipper custom dad apparently had fenders from a 400 on it? And they would clip the doors. But your car looks correct. The fender itself can be adjusted by loosening the various mounting screws. There are a LOT but it's not terrible. Send a picture of what is going on!!
