Default Front tire clearance when turning.



Quick question, how would I make room on the plastic inner fender?? The front outside edge rubs abit when I turn. I can push the plastic inner fender with my hand and it easily pushes out of the way. I need about one inch. Can you heat the plastic and push it in?? What do you guys do?
