Default 17*11 TT2's

What does it take to fit a 17*11 TT2 under a stock rear end with a 1inch drop?

A local guy was telling me I have to roll the quarter, and cut the inner well on the trunk....That true?

Thanks in advance!

You do not need to cut anything. Depending on tires, you may need to hammer the inner wheel well and/or roll the outer fender lip. With my GSD3s I had to do some minor hammering.

You may have to hammer the fender lip just a little bit but thats all you have to do....sometimes not even that.

With DR's you may need to BFH, but even then its not much. I only had to hammer the front part of the inner fender plus I still have my bumpstops.
