Haha, thanks man but I don't need it anymore. Besides, I wouldn't want to go up your driveway again hahah. Today I relocated one tab further back, shaved the plastic and bent the metal part up with a hammer. Sprayed some clear cloat on it afterwards for safety measure. Tested it out and still heard rubbing.
Then just right now, I placed duct tape on the tabs and the area around it. Went for a drive and decided to go on some dips and parked the car in the middle of a dip when I heard it rubbing to check it out. Turns out it's rubbing on the part where the bumper meets the quarter panel/fender. Should've done the tape test sooner haha. Oh well, I'll just shave them down a bit tomorrow.
And sorry for being off-topic, Macs.

Nice man. Glad you finally got the tires. You should've went with 215/45's though. 205 is a little too narrow for me.

I just got done shaving the bumper. Yay, no more rubbing lol. 
Macs, you should get your fenders rolled if you haven't already. Or do the tape test (with your friends in the car lol) that I mentioned before, and check to see where it is rubbing so you can roll/shave accordingly.

i canot roll my fenders unfortunatly because the previous owner has allready cut the fenders (just not enough... for the new drop) and i looked today while putting th new tires and clutch on that the tabs have been re loaced and the tire is rubbing on a piece of the fender missed a little bit... it stick out a tad more than the rest.. so i will cut that dow tomorrow and we will be all good!
btw the tires are amazing!!!
289 for Khumo's? highly unlikely but awesome if its true!
btw the names josh!
