This is gonna happen, part of the stance life.
The issue is that it snagged the inner lip. Really if I had cranked it harder I probably would have cleared because my caster causes the car to raise a bit as I add more steering angle. But double guessing and only making a minor adjustment lead to this. I don't mind rubbing the inner liner but by rolling the lip it won't pull the fender out like that the next time i make a mistake.

Luckily Tire Rack's Road Hazard coverage is sending a replacement tire so I'll be back like nothing happened by the end of the week.

Nah, def not going down a tire size. I don't like the look of stretched tires. If anything I'd move to a higher offset wheel. But this fitment is perfect, Rays knew what they were doing when they made these.
