I’ve seen something like what I believe you are referring to on a buddy’s bike. And he picked the wrong 21 in tire, plus he should have modified how his fender was mounted. The tire being too close the fender was causing his paint on fender to crack.
I’m hoping your just talking about the paint and not really the metal.
I do not have a 21…. Just not cost effective and practical for me…. However this is my take on your dilemma………
  • front fender should have been adjusted to compensate for new wheel
  • bad choice in size of front tire profile

But then again since I have not seen it …..it could be brake fluid leaking on fender………… Hope you find the source of the problem

Good Luck
