Hi Everyone,
Im new to the forum, loving it so far, lots of info!!!
I just put a new set of 16" MD 72 rims wrapped in 215/65R16 Yokohama Geolanders.
I am having a rubbing issue on the backside of the tire when making sharp turns. Only happens on the drivers side.
The offset on these wheels make the wheels stick out a little more than the stock 16" rims.
What due you guys suggest I do? Cut some of the inside plastic fender?
thanks!

Mine do it that way too. All you can do is cut it until it clears.
