Had a question about for you slammed guys...

I have my car dropped about a month now but decided to go lower. For the guys slammed on OEM's 17's, 18's etc, is removing the inner-fender needed?

If it's necessary the car will take care of it for you.

Like many others had said, you're be fine without removing it. If you're slammed, you worry more about those rainy days & hydroplaning .

mmm I might have tried the dremel thing if i knew about that. Because i rolled it with a heat gun n mallet and i felt i was abusing my car.

You should just have to cut the lil 1/4 fold on the quarter panel. Mine really only pulled about 2-5 inches past where the bumper meets the quarter panel. when I was using the heat gun under the panel the fender well plastic was melting so I pushed the plastic upward and it molded in place so if it was in the way it’s not any more. I don’t think you would have to cut that part out though.

you cut the actual metal. as for fender liner, your tire will burn through that on its own
