          take the plastic lining out completely. doesnt hurt anything.

            get a fender roller and roll the fender to get rid of that lip. and get lower profile tires. that will deff fix the problem. also replace those struts quickly thats some of the reason its bottoming out so much and cutting your tires

                You can use a wooden baseball bat to roll the inner fender lip up. Sounds ghetto but I know auto-crossers sometimes to it to squeeze a bit more width in there.

                        Yes, a fender roller is the legit way to do it.

                          tires are way too big like everyone said
                          i had the same problem with 60 series
                          go to 55 or below and it will be fine
                          if you keep it like that it will rub a hole into your engine bay trust me lol
