My rear bumper is lined up to the fender and some of the liner has been removed in that area to avoid a jagged point.

I'm running no liner at all in the front, full liner in the back.

On my old setup (18x9.5 on 225/40 and 18x10.5 on 245/40), I didn't rub at all in the front. I only hit the sidemarkers on full lock. The rears rubbed against the bumper tab until we pulled it out and did a little bit of cutting. I'm currently running a setup of 18x9.5 on 245/45 (I think?) and it rubs on hard bumps and full lock only. My new setup coming up, I have no idea.

Hopefully this helps.
def bro thanks.
