Default Front arch roll or cut ?

As everyone knows the rear arch has absolutly no lip so i cant tuck my wheel hard when aired out.

But on the front there is a slight lip and i want my arch sittin on rim

So what have you stance guys done roll it? Or angle grind it off?

Or anything else?

Id rather ask for advice before cutting into my arch

Thanks

Just about anything that adversely affects handling or performance tends to get less-than-helpful comments on this site.

basically leave the suspension alone, add a front swaybary 30%+ stiffer, and RE11's done.

yeah you get that a lot on forums (keyboard warriors etc) but its tuned already performance wise the only next step further is turbo or supercharge

I don't recall seeing anyone here that has shaved their fenders, only rolled them (but I haven't been here long so...).

Another thing to be wary about is this: If you do plan on shaving the fender, you should try and gauge the overall thickness of them. Reason being is unless they're double-walled (I believe that's the correct term) shaving them will weaken the structural integrity so airing out and having your fender sit on the rim could buckle the fender.
