Default Has anyone...?

When I bought my car they came with the rims you see in my sig, I have a second set that I had from my other mustang that I put on which are the same style just wider so when I'm driving and the car goes over small bumps it bottoms out and the Fender Cuts in to my rubber, I put polyurethane spacers in and that helped for a while, but what I need to know is has anyone encountered this same problem or modified their fender well for the rear to accommodate a lowered vehicle with wide tires. 285/40/18

when you put this in your sig do [img] instead of caps in the beginning like [IMG]

and put a [/]in front of [IMG] at the end like this [/IMG]
sorry for jacking the thread but i like your car with the 2000 chrome cobras. i liked those pics you posted a while ago too of those new edges with 20s and such.
