Pre-trim?

The 35s are going on tomorrow guys! The questions is.. should I go ahead and pre trim? I made some measurements and decided I'm going to have to take some of the valance off. The place I got my tires and wheels from are going to throw them on for me. Should I pre-trim the valance so I can drive it home, or do you think i'll be fine?

I say go ahead and trim. When I got my tires, they rubbed on the fender flare, so when I got home to trim, the flare had loosened a little, enough for me to have to add a sheet metal screw in order to tighten it up again. If you do it before the tires go on, what is there to worry about?

What did you use to trim? I've never done it before, but I would imagine a miter saw, maybe?

I had to trim mine and I just used the little saw from my leathermen.
