Bagged with big wheels/tires

What are you guys doing about the inner fenders to strengthen them? I havent even had my truck on the street yet and have already bent the inner lip of the fender accidentally when turning to far while driving low. This is with 1" narrower a-arms.

This is one on the best designed bagged 60-66 inner fenders I've seen.

Yup, for the radiused edges. Filled in the sides and banded them to make them wider.
