Hey everyone,
So I bought a pair of Project Kics 25mm spacers for my rears. I didn't think I'd need to roll the rear fenders, but literally every time I go over a decent sized bump at more than 35mph my drivers side rear wheel rubs the fender..... I have just been driving with this set up for 20 miles and the rubbing is already eating into the tire, causing little strips of rubber to come off. What do I do?
I have a 2003 G coupe on 19in Axis Milanos, 8.5 all the way around.
Don't know the wheel offsets without the spacers as I bought the car with the wheels on it. Tires are 245/40 all around.

I wish my garage was that CLEAN!
Thats a pretty hefty tire, I thought the last time I saw you they were a bit stretched, but it could have been optical illusion. The fronts come with a pre-roll, you could have Elite or Hills roll the back easily.
Are you lowered?

Alright well thanks for everyone's help. I guess the only solution would be to roll them fenders. Any reliable place near 21042 or Baltimore area to get the fenders rolled?
