My advice to you is get the fenders on since you're pretty much committed. First and foremost, get your ride height to where you want it. Get an alignment (atleast even out the rear cambers) so you can use the wheels as a reference when you put your rear fenders on it. Then, BOW living crap out of it because you will need to. You're at the point that you either make it work or you don't.

Its moot but you shouldn't have cut the inner fender like that. Most of the time, people would cut the outer at the body line, pry it off the inner, pull the inner high up to where it meets with the outer again, weld it together and then cut the excess off.

240SX.net ? View topic - How to: Overfender Install!!

As far as the fronts, you'd need more than a 30mm fenders. I still think your fronts are gonna suck fitment wise, I dont see how the hell you're not rubbing at lock unless you're 4x4ing it. I think you need a 50mm front and 70-80mm rears.

Love this info, thank you!!

Now for the rear I have out the over fender on with tape to see how it looks, it fits? It's close yes but if I shave that inner lip out of the over fender it looks as if it will be fine. This is with my current tire set up.. I am looking for another set up on sizing so I can run a little more stretch so I might not even need to shave the lip of the over fender. Now viewing BOWing it I don't think is needed since it looks tight but will work..?

Now why do you think the front will suck fitment wise? I have seen people do 18x11 on the link that was posted here. They also had the 30mm fenders?
