I had to roll my fenders until I took my rims off (rubbing was too harsh on rims). Any how, find a reputible body shop that will do it. Or even better, if you have find someone with a Mazda 6 that has done it before have them do it. kls629, are you rubbing right now with the rx-8 wheels on?

I've got RX-8 wheels and tires on my wife's Mazda6 wagon and they haven't rubbed yet....probably have put ~15,000 miles on them so far.

depends on if you are taking tight turns at higher speeds as well as how heavy the load in your vehicle is... either one will increase the chances of tearing up your tire.
