Charles,
BTDT. With the 225/50s on 15s, I used a die grinder to grind off the fender
lip. You can take it down to the spot welds. Its important to reseal the
bare metal edges, and to keep a close vigil aftrewards, or they'll rust.
I'm suspicious of being able to roll the fender lip w/o cracking 15 year
old paint.
YMMV.
