From you search you will find the majority of people will recommend that you roll your fenders.

when you say cut do you mean make a bunch of slits in the lip and then roll it up that way or do you mean cut it off completely?

you dont want to cut it off completely. thts going to leave a sharp edge which will just destroy the tire even faster

I think rolling flat is a lot cheaper than cutting. Roll them first, i think it's like 40 a side

ROLL THEM!! Just make sure to have a reputable shop do it that's not in a hurry... A friend of mine paid to have his fenders rolled on his STi... and they didn't know what they were doing... chipped his paint.. and wrinkled them! they did it too quickly... so then we ended up cutting them ourselves and it was just a HUGE pain in the ***... plus you run into the issue of rusting or something along those lines. I would never cut my car
