19"= trouble?

Ok so when I first got my 19's, i already had my eibach pro kit. my inner fenderwells pretty much got shredded. what do you guys suggest or what have you done to protect the fenderwells without having to go back to stock ride-height?

Pro kit is only a 1" drop all around isn't it?

What size tires are you running with your 19s?

I have never heard of someone ripping the fenderwall off because of going with larger wheels. Look at those tools with 24s lol

I'm assuming you mean the plastic fender liner. If you have springs you should be fine....otherwise the issue is that your rebound is not all that great or your tires are too big (profile too high).
