i thought you was done already with your setup.....i feel you man. that damn fender is freaking strong like rubber, it just doesnt budge. even -8 degrees didnt work for me, and im still havent put my car back together. i might just get the alliance bbk just to cheer me up 
ive tried pushing it out more with a scissor jack off the fender well and even took the fender roller to it for a few days, nada...the fender support is the strong part its not the quarter, i think the best way to do it would be to either cut part of the support out and just pull the quarter panel alone or unroll the fender, pull the quarter and then hammer out the support to meet it. idk, ill try them both before i go to plan B

most of everyone on here is running 19, while me and naggar are running 20's. how big is your lip nevaland?
did you scratch your lip on your new wheels naggar? i was going to get my lip refinish, since it got scratched up from the fender, if i ever get it done.

Yeah, my rear driver rim lip is all f'd up lol. I can sand it down and buff it out too look new again so its not a big deal but its still annoying. I found out that going into and out of steep inclines straight on instead of the normal lowered car way of at a severe angle doesn't touch at all since the corners don't compress as much. I don't scrape any of my exhaust either which is nice. 20s do give that extra ground clearance which is nice.
My rear lip is 5.5" and my front lip is 3.75". My front isn't that deep of a lip cause I got high disk just in case I ever got big brakes and didn't want to have to use spacers.
I'm gonna try to pull the **** outta my fenders sunday morning with the fender roller and see if that helps solve my problem. I don't care how wrinkled the fenders get, worst case scenario I can get them fixed at the body shop if its too noticeable.
BTW, I kinda wanna do 19s now lol. Seems like its WAY easier to fit the low offsets without the problems we're running into hatchboi!
