4DGS, do you have a bbk?

The reason for the question is... how are you fitting such a large tire (in the front) without any rubbing issues with how low your car appears!

Pull the screw out of the inside of the fender, it might be all you're rubbing on.
I'm actually hitting the fender...

it's somewhat bent. you can see from the photo.

You won't be able to get that effect on your 8.5" wheel. They don't make tires small enough to do that. Your best bet is the Toyo T1R 215/30 but then you are running an elastic band of a tire and it's really not safe to be running that on a front wheel. You'll probably crack a wheel pretty quick.

4DGS,

Can i "pull the fender" just a tad bit (10mm) ?

I saw a thread called fender "pinching"... Searched online but all I found was the roller, is it the same process?

Sorry missed all those threads. My CCWs are made for big brakes, I have room for the brakes but no money for them lol

I have a 10" wide wheel up front with a 225/40 on it.

Contact Danny, he's the one to talk to about fender work in FL. Let him know Blain sent you haha.

Chatted with Danny, but before I got in contact with him I changed the tires from 245 to 225 ... No more rubbing now. It still pokes but I guess it tucks clear of the fender. Only problem I am encountering now is the upper camber arm is touching the inner fender.... Under EXTREME hard braking, it's not a big issue though.

thanks again 4DGS!!!
