slight wrinkle is unavoidable in that part of the body. its due to panel design.

I trimmed mine with a cutting wheel. I have 17" MB Weapon wheels with 245-45-17 BF Goodrich G Force KDWS. Believe it or not it rubbed!

Find the thread on Jarrod Buschurs WW Evo. He had his fenders rolled and they looked great. I saw them up close at Norwalk.

I'm having mine done while the car is at AMS at the body shop behind them by Carlos. I'm sure you can call either of those shops and they will point you in the right direction.

Good luck

This is because your offset was WAY off.

Offset isn't too bad. They do sit a little further out compared to the stockers.



This pic is with the stock size Kuhmo 712.

What is your camber set at? I am willing to bet if you had negative 1.5-2.5 degrees camber it would have fit without rolling/trimming the fenders. People fit 255-265 wide tires without rolling the fenders all the time. This is with negative camber and proper rim offsett however...
