Best Way to Trim Fenders
Hey guys, I'm trying to figure out the best way to trim my fenders.
I got some 30/9.5R15's on some 15x8 Cragars with 4" of backspacing and they rub the fenders just a tiny little bit.
So, how should I go about trimming them?
Sawzall? Dremel? Grinder? What would yield the cleanest edge?
Also, for anyone who has trimmed their fenders, what did you use and how did it turn out?

Dont use a sawzall it slams against your fender and screws it up along with very jagged results. Use a grinder or a hacksaw and theres many of threads of people who have done it if you want to see some examples
Thanks all for the replies. That tech article was exactly what I was looking for!
I figure I'll attempt something like that, only using an angle grinder because apparently my sawzall stopped deciding to work.

Yeah, that's what I went with today. Angle grinder and a whole lotta' sparks.
Jimmy-rigged the hell outta' it but it works. I'll post some pics eventually.
I also had to shave the end of my bumper because apparently my front end is a little screwed up and the bumper stuck about an inch past where the fender flares end.
