What should I do?

I finally got my truck to sit level. I have 315 tires mounted on 16x10 old school Weld wheels. These rims have a 4.5 inch offset so the tire sticks out around two inches from the fender. When turned to the lock they rub the back part of the fender.

My choices are;

1. Get the grinder out and trim the fender. Use the Pacer flexible fender flare to hide the trimming and cover the tire to make it legal to run here.

2. Sell these rims and buy a set of 16x8's with the proper offset. ( money is huge issue right now, new rims not in the budget for quite a while.)

3. ?????

What do you think?

Cut them right now. Your truck looks good with that wider stance.
