your fiber glass idea is good as long as the patch is big enough that tire cant find an edge to grab and break the bond. easiest fix is a bigger patch and rivets in a different area. And rivets=metal (shity metal) metal eats rubber

If your sidewalls are hitting the rivets, you are going to break the fenders. Period.
In which case makes you a dumbass for thinking it would be fine and you need to be running more camber, bigger fenders, or shorter tires.
If you knowingly let it break your fenders......I mean lets face it, you fucked up
What sizes did you pick up for the new wheels?
