bought coupe 18's for a sedans

so i went from these:

factory 2003 sedan 6 spoke wheels with 215/55R/17 tires
to the 2004 coupe 7 spoke wheels 225/45/18 in the front and 245/45/18 in the rear.

I love the look BUT, like an a-hole i believed the guy when he told me the rears sticking out a little is fine. Now that I've been driving the car, everytime I hit a dip, i hear my rear fender brushing up against the tires. Is this something that can be pushed in?

Please explain this to me like I'm a idiot, which I definitely am.

Sorry if this has been covered. Just point me to the thread because I couldn't find it.

You can roll the inner lip of the fender a bit. Search fender rolling to give you an idea of what needs to be done.
