THATS WHY WHEN YOU GET THEM CUT, YOU MAKE SURE THEY GRIND DOWN THE MEAT HOOKS, IF YOUR PAYING FOR SOMEONE TO DO THE WORK, MAKE SURE THEY DO IT RIGHT

i cut my fenders, have no gaps between my tires and fenders, and have never rubbed. -1.5 camber, 285/35 tires, 10.5 +25 wheels.

don't forget that epithelial tissie is easier to cut than tires...
hmmm ok thanks!

The biggest benefit is that you don't have to worry about the paint chipping or the paint melting when they heat up and roll your fender. The negatives are all listed above.

I had my fenders cut and pulled on my old tacoma when I did offroad. Heres a trick I used to get rid of the sharp edges.

Go to an automotive store or home depot and get some tiny diameter rubber hose. Take a sharp knife and carefully cut a line down the middle, slowly do this or else it doesnt work too well when you go all over the place. Then get some rubbery type glue and use a tiny bit of glue to secure it.

Will save your tires if you happened to some reason hit the edge of the fender
