Default bfh method

ok someone help me out here. I just got a set Z06s for my car but they rub REAL bad on the inner fender. Can someone tell me where exaclty and how much I need to use the BFH method if at all. If I can get around it somehow I would like to but have no problem doing it. So just wondering if I just hack away or if theres certain areas to go after. Thanks.

jack the car by the rear and bolt them up drive up the street come back take them off and where you see the rub marks beat the crap out of the spots and then paint it black put wheels back on and go

it is really not as bad as it sounds. all you have to do is find where the tire rubs and hit it with a hammer maybe 15-20 times. Then I put the wheels back on drove for two days took them off banged some more just to be safe. Follow it up with a quick sanding and some undercoating spray and enjoy!
