    You need to shave the inside to get that dimple out I think. It looks to me like your fender got pulled. If you use a real roller you could get that rolled back in pretty easily.

    You busy in the mornings? You could come to my house and use my roller if you dont have one...

    Id like to try playing with it but my dad might have someone else do it... This is what we get for canyoning with no rolled fenders

    Damn dude, what are the specs on your wheels? That didn't happen to me till I got beefy tires and wider wheels.

    take the springs off of your shocks, then reassemble the suspension. Put the suspension to full compression and youll see where/if youre rubbing. then you can set your bump to stop right before that. I have 15x8 +20 with 205's with a MILD roll, and I dont rub, even on the track.

    just my tires are 50 series which is pretty chunky my dad used to work at mazda dealer back in 98 so he knows a lot about miatas...

    When my dad drove through the right hairpin turn hard thats when it happened

    Hes been racing and fixing cars for about 30 + years i can safely say
