    I can barely turn my front wheels, it kind of pisses me off. I'm not as low as I want to be, my wheels are sunk in about 18mm, and I can't turn the steering wheel much past 90 degrees without rubbing hardcore. Both my fenders are already wavey and the inner lip is starting to crack and separate from the rest of the fender.

          The sound of my sub-frame bracing smacking the pavement on big dips in the highway is considerably louder than the sound of my tires rubbing, so to avoid hearing either noise I just turn up the music

                I don't even notice tire rubbing anymore. When I'm with a passenger it's like,

                "Umm, what's that noise...?"
                "What noise? Oh, that's just the tires hitting the fenders, don't worry about it, it's fine."
                "Uhhhh... "

                    Most front fenders are pretty soft, you could probably roll them a bit and give them a tug by hand.

                      just as a side note, i was wondering how thick is the sidewall of most tires? i rub all day everyday but because this is my first build ive never experienced just how much i can get away with before i a blow out. any words of wisdom to share?

                      heres a old pic . since this ive thrown on 15mm spacers, ive had my fenders flared and a -2 camber adjustment. my entire sidewall is bare now. with 245/35/19 on 9.5 in wide miro stp3
