.. removed. Fender lining trim removal I mean. Makes a big difference on this dips and road imperfections between bridge transitions and the regular road on my commute.
No rubbining in those cases with the 15mm spacers with extreme wheel travel. 20mm spacers to go on next.

towards the back side



towards the front side



full view


another view, no bracket shaving needed. As we know the fenders are pre-rolled from the factory.




The lining

was it rubbing alot? I'm assuming you did this yourself right? What did you use??

Are your 20s rubbing? Click here for solution! - MyG37

I looked at this post from blackjack for a DIY... but I was wondering what you did personally... I'm thinking of going more aggressive with my CV1s... adding a 30mm spacer to the rear and moving the 15mm that's on the rear now to the front... so I might need to trim some fender too! lemme know!

I would be tempted to try and cover that gap so moisture and road grim doesn't accumulate behind the liner. Duct tape comes to mine, but that would be bad. haha. Maybe undercoat spray at least (but that wouldn't really cover the gap)? hmm

It was rubbing the liner the first time it was cut. This was with a 15mm spacer with 275/35/19 tires and only when going over bumps. As it is now there is no piece following the top of th fender. I had this done at a shop. A razor blade was used. The bumper bracket is not rubbing.
20MM spacers are on back order and I think I can go to 25MM with the stock wheel with +30 offset without any issue with a 255/40/19 setup now. Once I get camber adjusted I'll see how it goes.

I don't think it would be that big of a deal if road grime got under there.
