To be honest I mostly do this on 1/8th bodies as I've found my 1/10th bodies don't need it. Just cut the arches so that they clear the tyres when deflected inwards.
Guys false alarm. I bumped my rear shocktower. It bent pretty bad forward which caused the posts to move forward.

This will be the 5th time since December 2013 I will buy this rear shocktower. It's flimsy...I hope serpent can make a thicker one,as thick as the rear upper arm holders
