No Stretch or Poke, but is this approaching flush? 19" x 9.5" et20 with 265/30/19 and Front is 19" x 8.5 et 25 with 235/35/19 (was going to be et20 but seemed too aggressive and I didn't want to crack the dumb plastic fenders in the front) 2 Fender rolls and a 4" strip of fender liner cut out and it still rubs like crazy in back. Gonna grind out the places it rubs today and hopefully that'll do 'er.

does that really work??? i just bought some 10.5 +20 for my e92 as my rear set up. ive done fitment for many other cars but the e92 still baffles me. usually i would get a stiffer spring rate but i had to settle with ST's this time. so should i just run another bump stop. sounds clever. less travel meaning i shouldnt be coming as close to the tire.

hit up eric or tam at supreme powers (vendor here) they have some new cooler fk bumpstops that interlocks with each other. Those default bumpstops are too soft for some aggressive applications.

I've seen guys at car meets and questioned them. On u-turns the exposed rim from stretched tires scrape the pavement. Exposed rims like that have to more prone to deterioration from dirt and water exposure whiuch has to hurt your wheel eventually. I'm also sure you have to watch out for every bump and pothole, instead of just the severe issues. Nope, you can't drive normally with that kind of set-up. |

Hmmmm I guess I have it wrong then, because my fenders aren't wrinkled and my wheels do not scrap the pavement doing U turns I could do U turns all day if I wanted to. I will admit I don't like to much stretch so I'm only running a minor one with a 285 on a 11.5 rim in the rear but still pretty aggressive with a good amount of poke. And I've always avoided potholes( not just the larger ones as you put it) with all my cars. Not because of the rims or fenders but because my cars have all been lowered and it's just my reaction now and it's just better for the car IMO.
