Oops, FAIL! tires..
Well i had to get new tires, and i was running stock 225,45,18.
I decided to go wider in back so my set of tires i ordered were 255,45,18.
Well I failed, now it rubs inside part of the lip of fender when i turn. When sitting i can just get my index finger between the rim and fender. What do i do now?

255/45, that's a lotta rubber.
I would think getting the fenders rolled would help out. I'd try that first before selling them. You're on S-Techs so your'e not THAT low that it'll be impossible.

Roll the fenders you should be fine. Someone in your local autox community should have a fender roller and you can do it yourself. There is a pretty big lip inside the fender that can be folded back.
Lesson learned for next time.
