How do I get the rears to advoid rubbing?

I rarely have people in the back of my car but I am lowered and I noticed that if i were to have passengers in the back it would rub because of a little black plastice piece behind the rears fenders. Have anyone taken that piece out? does it affect anything if I did take it out?

idk what you're talking about. i have 16x7 +38 offset rims, 205-50-16 tires, im lowered on skunk2 springs, and im not rubbing at all. i wasn't rubbing with stock tires either. i don't understand how someone rubs in the rear.

im not rubbing when I drive by my self or one other passenger, but Im saying if I had 2 or more other passengers in the back on my car I believe i will rub because of the black tab that sticking out of the rear fender well. look at your rear fender well and you will see it.

did you have any issue with the screw/tab? did you do anything with them like taking it out or did you just roll the fenders

I shaved down the corner of that black plastic piece that holds the bumper in place.
