Default Tires rubbing against fenders WHAT DO I DO!?

Currently I have some 18 inch Tenzo Shu-4's (215/35/18) on my car with a 2 inch drop. When I make turns it begins to rub like crazy, and I don't have any other rims/tires to replace the 18's either..and I don't have the money to take it to a "body"shop and have them roll my fenders, I manually rolled them myself, but it wasn't rolled enough..Anyways HELP ME OUT GUYS!

mmmm you can rip out all the fender lining and it'll help... i did that when i had 18's. Might be a sore to look at but when your on 18's you cant see it that well anyways... plus you can always put it back if you decide to go with smaller rims

so you want everyone to help you
but

you wont buy smaller tires
too cheap to roll the fenders
and snap at people when they have recommendations?

blow a tire for all i care

i dont understand how kids spend $ on their parts but when ride quality or routine maint. is needed they all become super cheapass's

it's like

CHECK OUT MY 3000 dollar wheels

ooops i blew my motor since i never changed the oil

he was just asking what he can do, and recommendations. How do you know he wont go get his fenders rolled or buy smaller tires after reading this thread. Not everyone knows everything like you. Don't post if your not going to help. Also no one asked for your opinion about how he spends money on his car. Thanks. have a nice day.

If you have Racing Hart type C's why are you riding on tenzos? oh and either raise the car, get smaller wheels, pull the fender lining or quit your senseless bitching

Ha..thats what I thought, but it might actually help (not that he would do it) because I don't think the wheels would turn all the way, mabye reducing the rubbing?


What do I know lol.
