As for the bumper tabs, the only solution I have found is the quick bumper release and to shave down all the metal and plastic inside the bumper and support.
With the rear you can shave down the corner inside where the bumper meets the quarter panel .
Yeah, I got too scared and ended up raising my car up. Might do a pull or buy less aggressive wheels!

Hahaha ya I'm trying to work with it, but I'm really not satisfied with my front fitment while static. So if everything goes as planned, most likely bags, SORRY static life didn't choose me LOL.

But some quick shots my friend did for me this morning. Static fitment though

If I wanted to keep this front fitment, I would have to pull my fender a good amount considering how I could only do less than half a u-turn LOL. Rubbing all day though.. NO FUN

I'm super broke right now so I'm not even sure.. Airrex, Airforce, Airrunner with Autopilot V2 most likely IF I go this route or I can sell these wheels and run a less aggressive front spec and I can stay static LOL

So I raised the car up a bit just so I can do a full lock on even ground. Can't stand doing like a 5 point turn to get into my garage spot like before.
