Did your 245/35/20 tires rub the black splash guards on the inside of the wheel well. Did you have to do any modifications? I have 20's on 245/35/20 and they are rubbing please help

at full crank mine will rub the splash guard a small amount in the front of the wheel well but since that was at full crank only i didnt try to modify it at all. are you sure its just the splash guard or do you need to have your fenders rolled?
