I have 17X9 +45 ADVAN RG2s and I used to have 245/40/17s. Now I uprgrayyyded to 255/40/17s. The wheel well is stuffed with wheel and tire. It's lowered on KWs. It now scrapes on larger bumps on the rear bumper.

I know I can cut out the rear bumper. My fenders are allready rolled. I just need to know where the freak to relocate the bumper bolt to. Anyone have pics? I'm gonna have to crush the part where the original bolt goes obviously.

Holla!

 

2 inches back drill out an tap it back on.

 

pics when done?

when i was running 255's i just got a grinder and shaved down what was rubbing on the bumper tab without having to relocate it. when i did that it stopped, however, it did burn down my rear bumper on the inside so i shaved that down aswell. hope that helps!

Thanks for sending him down. My shoulders would have been so sore. He kept rubbing my shoulders...and every time I looked back at him he'd go "oh oh miscuusie" (euro trip).

Anyway, it was pretty straight forward...but I took some pictures and ****.

I'm paranoid about rust. I dont ever drive it in the snow or between nov. and late march at all...or until all the salt is gone off the roads. But I think I may get some plastic hardware just to be safe.

I'll get the pics tomorrow. Tired now.

Really off topic, but it's not "miscuusie"... He says "Excuse me" in his own accent.

When I first saw Matt Damon sing 'Scotty Doesn't Know', I had to get my own mp3 copy

Hahahaha too funny homie...

About the moisture, the plastic trim on the inner fender lip... ReMOVE it. As well as everyone else.... moisture gets in there and causes corrosion...

I know he's saying "excuse me" but it sounds like "miscuussie". It's Italian, BTW. Scusie means "excuse me". Not sure why he says "miscussie"...but...wait why the hell am I explaining this?!

way to ruin my joke. Now I'm gonna lurk till you make one...then you're DONE.
