18x9 +30 wheels stock suspension rubbing

I just got my 18x9 +30 wheels installed with my stock suspension and when I take a turn that has a bump, my rear wheels are catching the fender/wheel hub thing. I don't know how or why when I see people with 20 offset wheels that have been slammed. Help??

Do you think you could take a picture of the "wheel/fender hub thing" where you think you're rubbing? I presume you want help solving your fitment issue?

Either dial in some more negative camber, or roll your fenders.

Yup. Also "fender" is the proper terminology for that component. The "Hub" is what your wheel and brake is attached to.

Thanks for the help. I don't think any negative camber is gonna happen, but how much does fender rolling cost?

Shop will probably charge 80 or so a fender I would guess (don't quote me on that, just a random

guess). You could definitely get it done yourself if you rented a roller. Its not difficult just take lots of

patience and time. Bout an hour a fender for a beginner I would say.


And, you would be able to run a little bit of chamber on just the stock set-up, enough to get you by for sure. Tires are not dramatically effected on just a couple

degrees.
