Default You may have missed my previous posts, or misread this one- ->
I totally understand the why and how of rolling the fenders..it was the details on the liner trimming that I was looking for.

I just installed a set of STaSIS T-Sports, with 6/7's and at the current ride height I am rubbing..

Thanks for the help!!

Default Re: here is some info....
True, true...

I would have thought the liner would become more pliable as the fenders warmed.

These guys cut the sheet metal? Seems overkill, if you are going to roll the lip in. Doesn't the lip sandwich the liner as it the fender lip is folded up? I can't see the need for trimming.

All this said, I am going to leave this up to the pros, just don't want to be uneducated!! TIA!

In that case, you need to get rid of liners if you are running tracksports. That's what I have.

Default I did the same thing. I must have cut about 2-3"
the gap is minimal so no crap gets in from there. I just hose that area from the inside once in a while to keep it clean.
