Default Shave rear fender liner bolts to fit LC818s????

Lowered my car on Megan EZs today. Noticed that those little inner fender liner bolts stick out awfully far. I don't have my LC818s yet (should be here by the end of the month) but I'm curious if anyone had to shave these down to avoid damaging tires??? it appears that they are going to be really close once the 265s are on there.

Any insight appreciated. Thanks!

I had 275/30/19 before with rolled quarter panels. I saw yhat scary bolt too. No problems. I have 255/30/20 now and I'm even lower. No problem still and I'm tucking rim!

Awesome. Thanks for the input. I guess I won't worry about it unless I run into a problem.

I'm running 265/30/19 with 15mm spacer and didn't have any problem so far. Still have some grap between tire and fender.
