That's got the perfect rake to it. Nice stance.

[AdamIsAdam]

Thanks for saying that. I was thinking there's too much rake now due to the taller tires. Although I'm digging the highway cruising RPMs now for sure.

Well, not exactly. My 275/50's didn't rub, but these 275/60's do touch slightly on a hard bump on the passenger side only. I'm going to price getting the fender rolled.

4.25" BS. I have room for more, but these rims only come this size.

Who would do that kinda work? Body shop I guess? Why wouldn't you just rent a grinder and grind them back? I need to do that with my car.

[AdamIsAdam]

view some youtube vids on this - Eastwoods puts one out, as does the manufactorer themselves. I for one am not taking a grinder to my prestine paint job! Rolling is a common practice, has been for years.

Local body shops can do it. I found one that does. He just wants to check out the car to make sure there's no filler on the fender lip at all or else it will crack.
