First, you have to understand we only recommend direct fit parts. However, if you need to keep the tires, you have no other choice. Please keep in mind, there are air bag sensors on the front of the vehicle. They will not work properly if you modify the bumper. Remember, this is not a recommendation. I would recommend getting smaller tires.

Really, there is no quick fix. The tire is too big for the vehicle.
