So the new tires/wheels on my Passat rub when I hit a good bump. I've rolled the fenders part way, but I think even if I flatten the lip totally I'm still going to hit the outside fender edge barely. I have to get more clearance so I can lower the car (I'm under threat of bodily harm if I don't lower it). I'm thinking of using a Port-a-power and trying to push the fender lip outward from the body. Or maybe use a scissor jack and some blocks of wood. I think I gained a little width from rolling the fender, but I think I might need a little less than a 1/4 inch overall for clearance.
Yes I could just get smaller tires, but why get rational now?
