        thanks guys, i feel like i could run a mildly stretched tire and it still wont rub. gotta love multi-link suspension when under load, it cambers up. a 255/35 on a 11" is a little wild, no?

          sounds about right to me. i wouldnt go much more in terms of the amount of tire, but it also depends on brand. what tire do you plan on running?

            unfortunately, they're potenza re050a run flats. but they wont be on for real long because i got them used and have about 50% tread left. the fronts are 225/35

                          well i just continued to use the fender roller just added a ton of angle to the roller ball so that it only runs along the bottom edge of the metal. add some heat via a heat gun and slowly pull a little at a time so that it doesnt get wavy and is a continuous flare throughout. take. your. time.

                          nice Swagon, yeah that isnt as bad as i thought it would be, most ive run before was a 245/35 on a 10" so then i figured a 255/35 would look very similar to that on an 11". thanks for the reference!

                              Should look sweet. The exhaust silencer needs to go though.
