I can only assume you mean after changing to your spare tire which is like a half inch wide... and that would explain a lot... but

Are you talking about the gap between the door and fender after jacking up the car ,poss you jacked it up on the fender mounting lip instead of the frame.But like others take pic of what you mean.

Yeah, if you mean your fender flange is bent, my car, and a lot of others have the same issue, not a big deal. Mines isn't horrible but you can definitely notice it when you look at it hard enough.

This guy came up with a good fix for it, I plan to use this method when I get the chance, seems pretty straightfoward.
