Default Question for people with DSE mini tubs

I just got my first tub in last night on my 79 Z28 and did a test fit of my wheels and tires, they are 18*12's and 335 tires,

My question is do you guys trim or roll your quarter lip for more clearance? It looks like I will have enough room but should I trim it?

I will be running a ride tech 4-link so I should not have much side to side movement...

I will be rolling the fender lips on my 68. Eastwood makes a nice fender roller but it is pricy.

Can't hurt to cut them, or roll them for added clearance.
