Well I mean I'm happy with my 32"s and all but really want to fit 33"s on my ZJ. So I test mounted some of my friend's 33s on and found that when I turn my tire would rub on this fin inside the wheel well.

This is on the front end by the way. So is this safe to trim?

 

i hammered that down so the tire had a smooth surface in case of rubbing

 

didn't think of that... Did you pretty much get it all the way flush to the rest of the well?

 

agreed. dont trim it just hammer it down, i did the same. you will notice there is pinch welds in there and you want those as they join 2 body panels together

 

Yea that's what gave me a pause..

 

I think there would be no problem if you'll hammer that part or trim it, no significant harm...
What's important is that you'll get rid of the rubbing and drive smoothly...

 

get out the hammer, if you want to prevent rust take a wire wheel with an angle grinder and grind in clean, then hammer over it and spray some rubberized undercoating on it.

 

Alright thanks for the advice guys, hopefully it'll fix it so I can test fit again this weekend
