Hey what's going on man...I picked up my 20 inch Lexani Krystals today. They are some bad *** rims. I was wondering what you had to do to your wheel-wells to make them fit without rubbing. I had a few people say I have to cut the wheel wells out, and others say I need to roll the fenders...I'm not sure i understand either suggestion. Could you kind of point me in the right direction and let me know what I need to do? Also, how thick are your wheels (i.e- 20x8, 20x9...etc)? Thanks in advance.

Wassup man. Do you have any pics of your rims? I'm not sure on what they look like. My rims are 8.5"wide and I had to roll my fenders up so the tires won't rub. I have 255/35/20 tires so I think that if you get a narrower tire it won't rub, I'm not sure though. Did you try on the rims yet to see how they fit? What ofset are they? I used a rotozip with the cutting wheel attachment to cut the fender lip thats jutting inwards on the rear. I cross-cut it so it would be easier to pry upwards with a pipe. after cutting it the fender rolled up pretty easily. if your tires do rub, you must roll your fenders or else the fender will shred your tire's sidewalls very quickly. Congrats on your new wheels

 

Hey man, I really appreciate the info. I haven't attempted to put the rims on thus far, but when I do I'll post some pics. If you want to see what they look like visit www.lexani.com and look for the Krystal's. They're pretty nice. Anyway, I don't really understand what you said I should do. The wheels are actually 20 x 9 but have 255/35/20 tires. So it's the same thickness, but I still do not understand what needs to be cut and/or rolled. Does this operation require me to cut into the body of the car, or just underneath in the black part where the wheel-wells are. Also, is this something I can do myself, or do I need a shop to doit? And what kind of shop would do something like this? Thanks again for your help man, I know I sound like a complete moron.
