Sweeeeet Ride! Do you have any pictures of the inside fender where you shaved it? Do you mind saying what you paid for the rims and tires?

The bolt that holds the bumper. If you just installed the springs, it wont rub for now but after a week or 2... ouch. Cause I see that your offsets for the front is aggressive like mine.

I'm getting some rubbing in the back during dips on the freeway at high speeds. I'm running an 8.5" rim in the back with a 245/35-20 and 15mm H & R wheel spacers. I just ordered a set of 255/35-20 for the rear and I anticipate I will rub even more. I will probably swap the 15mm spacers out for a set of 5mm.

How much did you take off that inner lip on the fender?

i will try to post a pic later. to get a good shot i must life the car with a jack. let me say one thing.. its verrrry time consuming to do what i did with the rear fender lip. i am very **** and spent hours performing this job for it to come out perfect.
