nothing, tho i couldnt get a clear shot of the tab i could see that the tire never hit/rubbed...im currently running 275/30/20s on 20x11 sp1 with -4 offset at -4.5° camber.

didn't have to relocate them or modify the fenders.

in the first pic, the black rubbed spot was from when i removed the rear bumper (rubbed against my garage wall..) to test fit an on-going project

the second pic shows how far my rim/tire pokes out from the fender (i tried to get a shot where the fender is flattest) (sorry i didn't rotate the 2nd pic, wudda made it lots smaller)

hope that helps.. but if you have further q's, shoot me a pm

Thx man. The tab hit my tire. 265-35-19. -15 offset. I'm getting -3 camber setup today on alignment so I gotta check if it still hits

Funny I never hit the rear tab, just the front one.. I've bent it up as far as it will go, but still down enough so that I'm still be able to attach the bumper tab to it. I hate how far back the bumper tabs connect on this car, its almost on top of the wheel.
