i have searched the forums about rolling fenders but still have a question. i'm going to use ford b springs and i have 245/45 on front with 17x9 275/40 on back. been told i may have to roll fender to not rub. thing that i dont understand is on the front if you roll the fender, the little lip inside, what do you do about the plastic inner fenderwell? what would that attach to? thanks!

If I can remember right the Ford springs only lower about an inch, if thats the case you should be fine

you shouldnt have to roll the front. the rear is yor main worry because the fox body sag in the rear. if you are lowering the rear then you will need to watch what tires size you use in there. i have 26/11/15 so my tires fills the wheel well completely and the quarter panel lip is rolled

Yea the front is never really an issue, it's the back that people are talking about when they say "rolling the lip". I don't even think you will have much of an issue with those springs, maybe when you hit big dips in the road or have a big dude in the car with you.

The only thing that might rub up front with 245x45 w/ 17X9 would be the inner wheel on the A-arm, which is an fix with rack limiters/ travel restrictors. Other than that you probably won't have a rubbing issue in the front.

yeah i bought rack limiters when i put the wheels and tires on. i didnt have to use them it only rubs on full lock and thats ok. i guess i'll put the springs on and if it rubs THEN i'll worry about rolling the fenders. thanks y'all!
