Its going to be hard without a little inner wheel well massaging. I run CCW's with a 3" lip.

I also have TTII's, and did not have to do anything to clearance those. For the CCW's, I needed to bang the inner fender a bit. Its not that bad.

OP, don't be afraid of doing the BFH mod. Typically, the only part that needs "massaging" is the inner part of the fender that's toward the front of the car; not the rear part of the inner fender. What I did was got about a 6 pack in me, got the courage to do it, and once I was finished and had the wheels on there, didn't look back. I also spray painted the entire inner fender section flat black so you couldn't tell where the hammering took place.
