Default help! clears CWest fenders?

i am considering the cwest fenders and wanted to know if any of you could post pics of your clearance to the wheel. i am curious too if the clearance will be more or less then my roll/pull. i am worried that they wont provide enough clearance for me, and its the only fender i am considering. i do realize its 10mm and ive measured. my wheel setup as follows 17x9.5 47et. thanks for the help!

Some people run the C-West without the fender liner. If so, it gives a little bit more added clearance.

you should be fine, but it also depends on your tire sizes

I've wondered this too as I have 9+40 w/255. I think it depends on how much camber and how low you run. I would think they are pretty fragile, so its a bit risky. Trimming the fender liner is a given, as its required on most aggressive setups even on stock fenders.

opps, i guess for clarification, im running a 255 azenis tire, and -2 camber, as seen in the picture, i have no fender liner watsoever in the car at this point. i guess i could always order and mount the before i paint, but pain if it doesnt clear well, i dont want to break the fiberglass.

You'll have more clearance than that pull. you need to run more camber though...bump it up to -2.5
