Yep, the front lower edge of the inner wheelwell is where it gets tight on sons car also. He's running 275/40/17's on a 17'9.5 wheel w/5.5" BS. I took my body hammer and "tweaked" this area just a hair to create a little extra breathing room.
Here's a picture of the non-existant extra room on the outside of the tire.... no rubs, but damn it's close!
My fender lips are REALLY thin, body guy did amazing work on them

They are there, what he did was cut a bunch of small cuts then and pounded the lip flat against the outer sheet metal, its thinner, but much stronger than if he had simply cut them off, he did the front fender lips the same way.

I was thinking of buying a Eastwood fender roller. I see them on e-bay for $219.00. Mine have not been touched.

Well, Sluggo and I got the rear end lowered down to where it needs to be. I loosened up all the rear supension hardware and afte bouncing the car a couple times the car dropped close to two inches, then, after some persuasion, we installed the lowering blocks and got the car down where it needs to be. I dig the new look (except the shot of Randy in the fender reflection).

Holy crap, one of Randy's leg is bigger than the other!
The mustang sits very nice.

He likes to refer to himself as elephant boy, not really sure what he's talking about.

It's looking real good Rick. Your lucky to have someone close that can help like that.
