Heat up the plastic on the inner fender and push. or just cut the part out

if it it the actual fender then get it rolled.

Grnrpr68: Whats'up man, to answer your question, I have a 2" drop front and rear, but I believe the tahoe limiteds were lowered already from the factory about 1" to 1.5 so it's more like a 3-3.5 drop. (That is if what I read was correct). Either way, I rolled my fenders due to them cutting into my tires, and as far as the inner fender wells, ours are metal so you may have to beat them in or have them tubbed. My 24's rub the inner fender well on large bumps so I will be gettin my tubbed sometime in the near future. I's suggest, first rolling the fender lips and after that maybe beat in the INWs with a hammer or just have them tubbed. Hope that helps
