I took the "bolt" at the corner of the cladding out and with some help from a large hammer made the needed adjustment. I did not cut the rear.

If you take the inner fender loose you will see that there is about a 3/4" spacer that holds the cladding out from the fender well. My original thought was to cut that spacer out and then put it back together. Thankfully the hammer was enough.

My wheels are +6 offset with 275/60/18's.
