All you're doing basically is rolling over the "lip" of your quarter panel/fender. There are tools out there that you attach to the hub and it pushes the lip in so its flush with the rest of the panel.
I did it poorman's way. Just took my wheel off and slightly kept on hammering the lip till it went flush. Just gotta becareful not to crack the paint or expect rust...

it goes exactly as its called you just roll them with a bat or some sort of tube. so they push out/away. did you remove the black plastic stuff or whatever its called in the wheel well? cause that might help enough to not have to roll the fenders.. or you you have like 22"s or something?

This might work, but the problem may be the semi sharp corner edge of the metal fender rubbing into the tires sidewall... This happened to me mostly around turns, or on intense bumps... Thast what happened on my EM1... I used a baseball bat to roll my front fenders, it came out okay, but the bend was not exact, and the edge was a little rough. It DID take care of the rubbing problem 100% tho.
I guess you just have to decide if its worth it to you or not...
