Thanks for all the input.

@carbonsignal. i would suggest in the future that you provide a range of offsets, or a recommended tire size to your customers. while my tire setup is a bit more square than that on other Moonbeam Z's I am not attempting to run anything outrageous. hell with the right offsets my tires would fit under a stock body Z. at any rate, i chalk it up to a miscommunication, as in general you guys were helpful throughout the process, but you might save folks some headache by taking the tire size in to account when making recommendations.

@erryone else. i went ahead and cut the inside of the fender as recommended by carbonsignal. easy peasy the tire doesn't rub. my offsets are still too aggressive. even bumping camber to 2.5* on the front leaves me with about 10mm of poke. the rears at 2* still poke about 25mm. so i have contacted strasse about the rebarelling. looks like they can land me very close to the specs i calculate to be a good fit. so now it's just a matter of $$$ and time.

lesson learned. if you go off the beaten path, make sure to bring your ruler.
