Fender roll?

Ok well I put my spacers on this past weekend before I left town and took it for a short drive, heard a few noises and took it back home and saw that the inner fender lip was pushed out a little at the top of the arch.

I am guessing that I either need to roll the fenders, raise the car a little or get a smaller spacer, I put 15mm in the rear. The gap between the fender and tire is about 1 finger.


Any thoughts?

Overall I love the aggresive look but need to be able to drive the car also.

Thanks guys, I came to the same conclusion tonight after a few buddies came over to check it out. Got to roll fenders for sure and then lower it a little more, and probably go to 10mm or pull the fenders out a little. Not going to go anymore negative camber as I am so sick of replacing tires every year.
