Fender Roll

Now that the GTi is on the softer KW Comfort Sport suspension, I noticed the front tires were rubbing slightly on the front fender. I had already previously lifted up the fender liner tab to clear the 245s on the 18x8.5 +45 wheels but this time I figured I might as well get the whole fender rolled to avoid any further issues.

I went to see Dan and got the fender rolled pretty quickly. This has definitely reduced the amount of rubbing but it still does on big dips in the road. I suspect between the softer valving and low ride height, I'm actually hitting the fender liner now. I may have to raise the car a little or stiffen the front dampers to avoid this.

Ah the joys of modified cars!
