Putting on my wheels now. Just got the rear wheel on with 25mm spacers. Pokes out a bit. Rubs on dips and bumps. Fender is already rolled.

Pics taken from my phone.

Great but what are you going to do about the rubbing? Are you adding a spacer to the front?

Not rubbing too much. Only on dips. For the fronts, I will have to add spacers too. Gotta order some now. Probably need a 12mm.

Looks good from what can be seen , however, what will you do about the rubbing if it still rubs and you already rolled your fenders????

Ban DK from forums until he emails admin pics. Then let him back.

It's weird. The driver side rear sticks out a bit and rubs and the passenger side rear is flush.
