I just dropped my vibe and when I going around a corner FAST I can hear the mud flaps rub. I think its funny but I think I'll have to cut the flaps down a bit..Anybody else have to do this?

I'm just trimming the front flaps I'm leaving them one there the same color as the car and keep the rock down.

Well, if it makes you feel any better, mine would scrape when making slow, sharp angle turns - at stock height. I think that car needed new struts, just guessing.

I trimmed mine about an inch after I lowered my Vibe. Not a big deal, I just used a pair of tin snips to do mine.

I didn't trim mine with the S-Techs. I hada carful of people one and everytime I accelerated they would drag on the ground (removed)...the wheels were inside the fender it was funny.I think it's fun when they scrape so I'm not gonna trim them. Leaving they long makes them look normal and gives the car a lower appearance.

My Car is stock, and the front ones drag on speed bumps so often that the paint is cracked on them.
