not only that with soft suspension the wheel is going to slap up into the arch an rip it out, you'd be best to harden the suspension.

avo coilovers or koni adj kit mate you wanna go at least -40mm take a piece of wood and wrap it in a towel or cloth then push on the outside of the arch and tap the lip with a hammer-softish do not grind as this will rust fast. for best results get your arches rolled youll save on tyres! 8)
