Cool New Rims Rubbing on the inner lip of rear end

I recently purchased privat rims and tires and they look great! the only problem is the rears rub on the inner lip of the fender. should i shave this area down to stop the contact?

dont shave the fender. that "lip" gives it strength.

get a nice heat gun and a fender roller. roll that edge flat with the quarter skin.

pics help greatly. are you lowered? need more info. wheel diameter, width, offset. tire size. alignment setting(how much camber do you run).

just fill this out...

wheels
size:
width:
offset:

tires
brand: (brindgestone potenza 245 are wider then a dunlop 245 even though both are technically 245's)
size:

suspension
lowered: how much?
alignment setting: if anything other then stock
