I removed a strip just over the tire about 2" wide where it it would rub. No ill effects to report.

You can't go much lower. Just on the inside of the fender liner is the seam for the fender. It sits right over the middle of the tire. Pull the fender liner down and look inside, you'll see what I'm talking about.

You will need to trim back the liner & have the fender lip rolled(or trimmed,but I would recommend rolling).Mine are trimmed ,but I'm going to get them rolled soon just to be safe. I'm about 2"(give or take) lower than stock on staggered 22s,D

He wanted to go lower and I was pointing out a panel edge (see arrow)
about midway inside the fender well. If you go to low and rub that part of the liner, eventually, the liner will wear through and that lip will slice through the tire. You have plenty of room on the outside but not in the middle.
