hi.. congrats new thread.. noob here~

*sigh* no longer can use this~

For those scrape issues when running on wider wheels.. i think 8jj does not scrape like mad.. coz i've been running 8jj awhile oredi.. i think the offset is small that's why 8jj will scrape.. most people change rims since the tyre shop "advice" them.. so the offers u the "in-trend" wide rims.. always check the offset.. 8jj i recommend the offset should be +30/35 or more.. if the numbers is smaller (ie. +28, +25 or lower) the wheels going to pop out of the fender alot more..

the scrape area varies on the front.. mine was the 'daun pisang' & bumper screw clip holding the front bumper edge to the fender.. i removed the 'daun pisang' & cut off the extended clip part.. but if that's not the case than the fender edge need to be roll.. i did mine to go lower.. how the process doing it myself as picture attached..

there area other solutions too this that most people usually avoid..
i) choose narrower tyre wide.. 195 for example.. so the sidewall of the tyre is stretched abit to give enough clearance..
ii) run on negative camber on the wheels.. u don't need to go as much those STANCERs.. but again enough to have clearance.. like wise -1.5.. i've run those previously with no uneven ware on the tyre.. but u need to check on air plus alignment often to avoid the said problem..
ii) change back to lower jj & offset rims..
