No, if you look you will be able to find some pinch seems, do not cut into that area.bgwyllys61 said:

there's my tech article. No need to cut past the pinch welds for anything less than 35's, especially if you are bumpstopped correctly (I have an article on that too). I'm running 35's under 5" without rubbing, and I didn't trim past the pinch welds. The cut and beat/fold method is going overboard and looks like crap.

Yes and no. You can cut and fold and make it looks clean. I was originally going to trim just under the pinch welds, except they are about 1/2-3/4" height difference from passenger to driver side on mine. I thought that would look bad, so I just cut and folded then taped, sanded, primered, and blacked it out.GottaBeJeep said:
