so basically it shouldnt hit the wheel well only the plastic inside the wheel well if compressed. worse comes to worse i should be able to bend the inside of the wheel well up. with out having to flare out the wheel well right.

yeah, if you get the inner arch rolled , then that should take care of it.

no need to flare on such a small adjustment.

ive got rondel 0204s 18x8.5 with a 235 40 18 profile, and an offset of 37, and 25mm spacers on each side..

the outer edge just scrapes on major dips.

the springs are -30 on the rear with standard dampers
