For those that have removed them, will I gain much room on the inside wall. I can push mine a little but so I'm thinking there my be 5mm in it.

I removed mine and cut down on the tire rub alot. I have 265/75/R16s stuffed under there and to me its worth it. . . However if you decide not to remove them a few self tapping screws should do the trick.

Actually, I had all kinds of rubbing in the rear when stuffing my 265's on Moabs. The lip would chew the sides of my lugs all to heck. After switching to a 16x7 Soft 8, the tire just clears the lip when the suspension is compressed.
