New pics with air suspension, but rims wont tuck??

Lots of misinformation in this thread. Airrunner doesn't use brackets, so it's not the air strut's fault. Adding camber shouldn't be necessary either. If you shave your rear fenders and roll the front fenders, they should tuck if the wheels are resting on them. If they're still hitting the fenders, you need some smaller tires. Good idea on the tape on the lips. I wish I did that after I installed my air suspension. Luckily mine didn't hit and I had 2-3mm to spare.
BTW, I never knew your car was blue! Looks good.

The rear fenders can be shaven no problem since they're two layers of metal. You can shave it to the edge and it should be fine. If you'd like to roll the rears you can try but since it's two layers, it's difficult. The fronts should be professionally rolled since it's one layer of metal. Reason why I say professionally is to avoid dimples.

i used the bat technique for my fronts and it worked perfectly. although i only had a small rubbing problem. just go real slow and don't force the heck out of it, slow and low is the tempo

when you shave the fenders you are litteraly cutting the metal off(because in the rear you have about 1/2'' of metal. when you roll (generally done in the front only) you are rolling it up and inside, basicly folding over itself, do a search and you should find this explained and pics in greater detail

Correct me if I'm wrong, when you shave your fenders, you literally are removing metal from the inner lining of your fenders and when you roll your fenders you are rolling the metal lining inside of your fenders that would normally hold the inner wheel lining together. Any explanation or correction to what I just said is greatly appreciated.

Just take your time and use a heat gun my fronts are slightly pulled . and my tires are 225 in the front . I just noticed in the pictures you posted who ever rolled your fenders did a lite roll I think you could have rolled some more . But be carefull with the back . the back is more proned to dimpleing.
Damn bobby that looks SICK!!!
OP: your car looks SICK too! lol
