Rolling frame rail and bracket removal

This will be a progressive DIY (hopefully if anyones interested) and a question.

The reason for this thread is obvious problems arrising from adding 20" rims to my Yaris most notably full lock rubbing.

After a week of driving with the new wheels and various loads Ive noticed the only 'real' problem Im seeming to have is full lock rubbing. There are two areas where the tires contact the frame on the car, some of this problem could be solved I suppose with spacers. Im planning to roll the edge of the frame and cut off an eyehook as shown in the photos.


This shows the bracket Ill have to remove. Does it actually have a purpose?


This shows the front of the frame where Ill roll the edge


This shows (if you can see it through the wheel) the location of both areas, the bracket is on the right just above the control arm and the frame area just left of the strut/spring.



Ive already made an attempt to roll the edge of the frame but I didnt have enough time.
