FYI, I run Fatty Rumpkins (they measure a true 41mm) under SKS P50 Longboards on my Sam. The P50's were a pretty tight fit when I first installed them, but I was able to get at least a couple of mm of additional clearance under the front sidepull by using Sheldon's Fender Nuts and mounting the fender behind the crown. They pull the fender up a little higher behind the crown. I now have at least 1cm clearance all around. Not sure how well they would work with the Honjo's however.
