Tony, it looks like the offset on my wheels is enough that I'm rubbing on the front fender well lips in the front. Can I roll the fenders using the old bat method, or is there a special trick on these trucks that works better?

Yeah I can see where it's rubbing the paint on the edge of the inside lip.

I just realized the fender is metal all the way up so I didn't know if the bat method would even work.

You can bend that tab up. Now on that offset you can run more negative camber. Will eat tires more but next time 285 45 22

I'm gonna see what can do to get some more clearance tomorrow.

If I run some negative camber, how bad will I eat tires? Are we talking 10,000 miles, or 3,000?
