Trimming Ground Effects on Gen 1

[NJSHO]

After I test fit my 16x7.5 wheels I noticed that I would probably need to trim my rear fender. I also noticed that the ground effects seems that it might get in the way. Just wondering if anyone has had to trim the rear ground effects to keep them from rubbing the tire?

No problems for me. I'm running a 17 x 7.5 with 225/50/17's. On another I'm running 17 x 7 with 225/50/17's. On another I'm running a 16 x 7 with 225/55/16's. You must be using a wide tire. You failed to mention what size.

Not the plastic, the steel wheel well lip needs to be cut down.

Had to roll my wheel wells

I had to have my rear wheel wells rolled but I'm running 245/40/18's and Tokico/Intrax:

Michael Olsen trimmed the plastic on his 94 when he ran my 17x8 TSW Hock R's. He said that he needed to relocate the plastic retaining screw when he did it. He was running 235/45/17 Pirelli P7000 SS's. Now that I'm running the same rims with the same tire size, I have not rubbed but I can see how/where it could happen.
