If you can bend the laws of physics so that debris coming off the tires in a vertical forward motion can now come off in horizontal forward motion, you will have fixed the problem!

"Or don't drive it" (?)...uuhhmmm, okay

If it's a physics problem then the buyer should not be responsible for the "fix". Engineers should've accounted for that during R&D! I have a couple vehicles with rather large wheels...the largest being 315/35/20 on my E53 4.6iS with 30mm spacers in the rear. Although they are not painted, there is zero damage to the rockers and fender flares.
