I love the wheels and would like to come up with another solution if possible. I guess I might could mill the backs of the wheel mounting surface. I can't imagine that would yield much safely though.
I wished I knew how much these Wilwood brakes push the hub out. I've read online over the years anywhere between 3/4" and 3/16". Recent info suggests the 3/16" is more accurate.
I think splitting the fender edge and reworking the inner to match might be worthwhile. Couple that with more camber and slight change in ride height might be my only options as long as I want to use these wheels.

That was one reason I did not use those wheels. I think they are my favorite wheel in the road racing style.
I also run 1 full degree of negative camber as well. The G-Mod will also keep the wheel travelling away from the fender lip.
Good Luck!!
Or you could have Hooooooolihan stretch those fenders!!!!
