rainman Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 ^^well done sir! you on any local/midwest forums? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent C Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Yes they are 9.5 +38. If I could do it again I would prob go +41 or +42 cuz the front is poking just a tad more than I would like. No I haven't been on any of local/Midwest forums but maybe I will check em out. Thanks for the compliments fellas!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent C Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Took the wheels back off today cuz winter is still in full force:(. I raised it up about an inch in the rear and half inch up front but don't like it as much. So I will be rolling the rears and slamming it again. Here are a few pics of it cleaned and raised up. http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/9A62D62F-2091-4BA5-9A93-B3559765E8AA_zpsjmnnycwf.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/0C10B478-A6F6-439E-9F4A-217E6B4384ED_zpsydfujclq.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/5ECC2FA9-452D-45CD-9E41-559D303B2346_zpsnvlvr04q.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/6B951219-56CA-4699-9911-02D6BFF7A7A8_zpsy54nwpbe.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent C Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) So I have a wooden bat and a heat gun, do I try to roll the fenders with those and just go super slow. Or do I spend the time and money to rent/buy a roller tool?? Edited January 27, 2014 by Brent C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 I would get a rent or buy a roller and do it the right way. There was someone here on the forum that used to rent one out. There are several adverts for rolling and/or rolling tools on my local CL. You could try that in your area. Those wheels look sick btw. I love em!!!! How much did they weigh? And where did you get them custom drilled? GTEASER's 2012 Legacy GT - Sold GTEASER's 2009 XTeaser - Sold GTEASER's 1992 Legacy SS - Sold Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent C Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 (edited) Thank you! I am not sure on the weight, but they feel pretty close to stock so not light by any means. You can order the M590's in custom width, offsets, and bolt patterns now. I think they call it the Bespoke program. I might just mess around with a regular hair dryer and a rubber mallet tonight. Take it nice and easy and see how it goes. If I get to nervous then I will just stop and find a roller. lol. I wish I would have gone with like a +45 offset, then I could go super low and not even have to worry about rolling fenders at all. It should look good when I am done though, well if all goes well, haha. Edited January 27, 2014 by Brent C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

s2baru Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Make sure when using a heat gun not to be too close. Use a fanning motion and evenly distribute heat. You wont need much "roll" youll need more "pull" toward yourself rather than crimping the smaller inner lip backwards.

.clipse Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 ahhh haven't been round' these parts in awhile but the day has finally come! looks good my friend. somehow the raised version of your car looks better due to fixing of the rear rake. plan accordingly when lowering your car again to avoid the rake. as far as rolling your fenders, s2 hit it right on the nail. in my experiences, just end up rolling the fender lip towards the fender while simultaneously pulling the fender towards you. also use the heat gun. hair dryer wont be hot enough to make the fender malleable. anyways best of luck either. post more pics Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent C Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Lowered down the front some more so it's sitting where I want it now. Just rolled the rear lip up a tad bit and no more rubbing:).
