Fenders

I have 18" SSR wheels, and they rub on my front fender. Does anyone make a nice wider fender kit for our cars? I dont want anything crazy looking just something that works. I am sick of rubbing....Help

With 18's, you should do coilovers. That will give you all the adjustability you need. You can add Ground Control coilvers to your existing Koni's for $600.

The ones with the two scoops are Wise fenders (cross between the Feed and Border fenders).

$600 will allow you to adjust your height you can can avoid rubbing. What are the tire and rim size (and offset) you are running now?

IMO, you should try rolling your fenders or getting coilovers before replacing the fenders to solve rubbing.

Do you think if I went to a lower profile tire in the front I would be ok?
