alrite guys, my ride is totally slammed.. And my front doesnt rub anymore..
If your front is rubbing on a certain spot, just cut that piece of liner out and sand it down really carefully. Then use a plastic hammer and hit it softly from the inside while using your hand to support the outside while hitting it.. Dont concentrate on just one spot, make sure its even out from middle to the front of the fender.. After pounding on it, slightly pull the fenders out just a little, and repeat the steps.. When you think its good enough turn your steering wheel until it doesnt rub. You should have good enough clearance, but always make sure you drive at a straight angle at the damn curves or driveways.. lol..
Hope this help guys!!

No it doesn't help can you please post a picture of the area of pounding? I'm sure I know what it is but you're going to need to clarify this for a lot of people, plus I'm not sure of what you're saying

New wheels. Terrible pic quality, I know, but I just wanted to keep this thread alive.

More pics can be seen at AME Wheels website under "news".

Anyone knows the offset and sizing of each setup on each car?

Hey you got one of the pictures. When I made the post the "news" link wasn't working.

The car belongs to a good buddy. He's actually a member here, but I doubt he ever logs in or comes here anymore. BTW, the size and offsets aren't for the squeamish.
