Default 4 questions! help!

1. What is the best way to remove mudflaps? EDIT- Cut them off with scissors.

2. How can I cut off the front bump stops without removing springs or moving struts?

3. Can I just cut the rear bump stops while spring is still on?

4. Should I get 225/40/18s? [Right now Im riding 215/35/18s]

1-tin snips and random orbital sander
2-have to come off cause its around the strut inside the spring
3-MAY be able to get in there but its quick and youll have to jack it up anyway, so take it off
4-yes, way better ride and traction, i would say go with 225-45-18

I don't know about the last three questions, but I can certainly answer #1. Just back up over a curb/sidewalk. Invariably that has happened to every car I've ever owned with mudflaps...

225/45/18 put some meat on them tires...and the front bump stop u have to disasrmble the strut to get to, I left mine alone, no problems here, the rear u can get to with springs on if u use a hacksaw

---------- Post added at 10:23 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:22 AM ----------

The rear depends if u have coil bind in the bottom or top, u may have to atleast Jack the car up
