Offsets on the new wheels look hot!! Kinda pokey.. need rolling advice!
Sorry for the dark pics...My wheels are kinda pokey... and on big bumps I'm rubbing/hitting the fender... Can I "roll the flat part on the inside of the fenders" myself?

Can't tell from these pics but...
It looks like the fronts are marginally past the fender line. Are these the Axis' with the 15mm spacers up front?
Rolling the fenders should solve your problems once and for all. Not a big deal, I would recommend it (it looks like you really need it at the front). Maybe at the rear you could get away with just removing the center screw as kodeTT suggested.

so "rolling" means bending back the material inside the wheel well >>>
just want to make sure i'm using this terminology correctly. Thanks again for all your expert offset/spacer help! The wheels look hot, i'll send you some pics this weekend!
