Hey guys. I've been a member on here for a while but have never really posted because I've found everything needed through searching. I recently decided to redo my suspension on my 04 and went with progress springs and Tokico shocks/struts. I'm running 17x7.5 48mm rpf1s and previously had 215/40s. After looking at some pictures on here I decided to go with 225/45s on all corners. I had to roll the rears but they are good to go.
My problem is with the fronts. The springs settled a lot more then I thought they would and the tires are rubbing the fender liners. After looking everywhere online it seems that the solutions would be to remove the liners completely, or cut them on the top where it is rubbing. Would it be safe to say that I could leave it as is and eventually the tire will rub through where needed or do you think that will destroy the tire in the process? Any opinions would be great and sorry for the long post!
