Just roll the inner fender lip up and pull the lip out as much as possible. The paint will likely split, that is why you always want to fit the wheels/tires before paint. As long as there are no sharp edges, and the tires only rub occasionally, it is not a real issue. Any sharp edges will cut the tire and ruin them quickly.
Some people have luck heating the paint carefully with a heat gun before rolling the lips, but I have never had any luck not cracking the paint. I have not used one of the fancy tools, just start the roll with a small adjustable wrench and work it up, then finish with a hammer and dolly, a couple of layers of blue tape keeps the paint from looking like crap, but it will not be perfect.
Edit: It looks like that is just e-coat, you are good to go.
