Anybody have photos of Alex's mod to fit a 215/45-17 tire w/ a 37mm offset wheel?

Also, do you experience any other rubbing on the front or rear under hard cornering?

I had some rubbing with 215-45-17 ES100 and 42 offset at the back part of the rear wheel wells. If you look you will see a bump in the plastic. It's pretty easy to trim. Good luck.
