Thanks man. The man that posted above is responsible for the looks, I bought the car from him as is.

Front is 235/35/19 and rear is 265/30/19

a little bit needed to be rolled on the car now that I remember.

It was in the circled area but if you arent going this low youll be fine plus it only rubbed on big dips and if the car has heavy passengers in the rear

Sorry guys I have never dealt with trimming up or rolling fenders, etc. but is it possible to do yourself or do you need a body shop to get it done? I didn't know putting 19" wheels on this car would be so stressful ha ha

Here is two pics of the car. I tried to blow it up so you guys can see the wheel gap. Like I said it has H&R springs. I don't think it's as low as PJ's (formerly yours). What do you guys think?

Its not hard, I doubt youll roll the whole fender...feel under it, Its probably already rolled at the factory.


I think I rolled the area on mine by jamming a rubber wrapped bar between the tire and the fender

Didnt need much was rly easy
