Im running the VOLTEX rear fenders BUT Im having a problem...

When I jack up the car to work underneath, the wheels start to push againt the fenders and start to put pressure on the rear fenders nearly pulling them off.

I cant even get the car high enough in the air to take the tires off.

Any suggestion?

I'll post pics tonight

Sounds like your wheel offset is off or your tires are too wide.

The tires need to be flush with the fender and have a few inches to spare when they drop when the car is lifted.

Your only solution would be to get new tires or new wheels.

did you mean the rear fenders will sit ontop of the tires??

Jack the car from the rear diff this will bring both tires up and you shouldn't have a problem.
