I have 285/50/20s on the front with a 2" drop (belltech spindles) and sometimes on hard bumps, the outside rubs the upper inner fender. I was thinking of taking my air hammer and just "massaging" (ie: hammer it like nuts
) to make some room but thought I would ask if anyone has some better ideas. It isn't bad and kind of reminds me of the good old BFH (Big F*ing Hammer) mod that always has to be done on F-bodies when we would put wide tires on the rear.

I get some rub on my 4/6 with 275/45/20 but mostly on dips in the road so I try to miss them as much as I can, the rear is a different story!! I did the BFH mod and rolled them in cause they cut my tires. Shouldn't have that problem with your 2/4.

My problem is the same as yours (big dips in the road) except since I used drop spindles instead of lowering sprigs, I still have the soft stock springs (ie: my front will compress more than yours on the same bump).
