For the guys who are riding low to the ground. Are you running without the inner fender liners? No rubbing issues over bumps and stuff?

I'm riding relatively low with wide wheels and fat tires, I rarely rub and when I do it is very minor. Haven't had to touch the fender liners or bumper brackets

Haven't modded a single thing in the fenders and there's plenty of space. I could use a 5mm spacer all around though.

Roads in Houston must be that bad then. I've already replaced my fender liners twice

How low are you (from the ground to the fender arcs)? If you're under 25.75" that's probably going to cause some issues.

Not sure. Never measured it. But here's a pic.

Looks about zero gap, similar to my sedan drop, should be around 26.25". Pretty reasonable for daily driving, and our roads suck too

I am at stock height and certain bumps I am hitting my fender liner in the rear. Curious to know how that is gonna be when I drop the car! LoL. Is there any reason NOT to run a fender liner?

I'm tucking with 10 in fronts & 11.5 in rears. I had to take my front fender liner (the back piece) out because it caught onto my wheel & got destroyed lol. Other than that, it's all gravy.

I dont get how you have 11.5 in the rear and its not sticking out at all. I have 10.5 all the way around and they poke a little

High offset my friend. I'm running 20mm spacers in rear to clear the coilovers

+55 with a 20mm spaced so +35 & they're flush. +22 is definitely going to stick out a bit
