Default 28" fitment questions

Gonna be stepping up to a 28" tire from a 27". Right now I have a good 2-2.5" of clearance from the top of my 27" to the inner fender lip, so I can pretty safely say that it wont be hitting that, but what about the inside fender? Ive already banged the front side of the inner fender in a bit (from when my 315's rubbed), and also the lower front of the inner fender lip.

Is there anywhere else I should probably start massaging before I throw them on?

i allready had my fender lips rolled but had to beat the very front lower corner in ( so it wouldnt cut into tire while it grew at speed ) other then that i didnt have any issue with mine had them mounted on 15x8 5" bs telstars 28x10x15

i must say that adj lca's are a must

I take you probably already have a adj panhard rod, but what I did was on the front part of your wheelwell, where it curves back towards the bottom I took that straight down so I would not have any probs with the tire rubbing it and the end of the track.
