    What consequences would there be if I removed the entire fenderwell to make clearance for my tires?

    The whole well, meaning the steel portion? Just a very dirty engine bay, and you would need some way to mount your brake controller if you have one, the windshield fluid reservoir, battery, and whatever else they crammed in the third gens
