Brent C Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) Wheels came yesterday so I did a quick test fit, now just need to order my tires.....you guys think I am gonna need a roll or a pull? I sure hope not, but it's not lookin good...lol http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/null_zpsc7d22503.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/null_zpsd2b9fcb8.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/null_zps4a159eeb.jpg http://i1211.photobucket.com/albums/cc434/wantavant/Leggy/null_zpsebaef68c.jpg Edited September 18, 2013 by Brent C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent C Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Damn, never rolled fenders before and do not want to. I can always raise my car up some but I guess to get the right look they will need to be rolled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTEASER Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Brent, test fit one on the front and take some pics. Also, if you could tell me how much space there is between the rim and front strut, that would be helpful.

Brent C Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 No problem, I will try to get on that after work. If not, sometime in the next day or so! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can always raise my car up some but I guess to get the right look they will need to be rolled. i don't see what the whole stigma is on rolling fenders. its just rolling the fender lip towards the fender to prevent rubbing just get a reputable shop or person to do it right.

Brent C Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 The second part is the problem, I live in Iowa and there are no shops around here that will touch it. I would try it myself but I know my luck, the paint would crack straight up the side of the car! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valkrie hunter Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 If you have access to a heat gun, that will be your friend. and very very slow rolling. take your time with it, measure twice cut once as the saying goes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent C Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 Ok, do I order Hankook Evo's or Toyo T1-r tires? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
s2baru Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 ^Look at the nitto motivos. I always chuckle at the whole 'rolling/pulling' thing...they are two separate things. A ROLL is just rounding the inner lip of the fender inwards or outwards depending on what you're doing. Now a PULL is literally pulling the fender out.

Hanger Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I cut the rear fender, never rubbed. However, the front is untouched and rub a lot Running 245/35 on 20x9.5 +38 I have hankook v12. Rear camber is at -2.80 Looking to push it out to -4 and lower another inch all around http://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/09/19/apama4ag.jpg Sent from my Xperia Z ○ ○ ○ Instagram: itshangertime :spin: ○ ○ ○ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brent C Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I think I am just gonna have to get my tires and then go from there. Yes, it definitely helped, at least I know it is possible now! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gen5is Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 (edited) Looking awesome Brent! Im sure you'll need to roll the fenders. Plenty of how-to videos on Youtube. You could always get a professional to do them for you. If i am correct, you'll only need to roll the rears. edit: Lol didnt see the posts above me. Heat gun and the roller that attaches to the hub is probably the best method. You could always ask around the local shops in your area.. you never know if they agree to doing it until you ask. (Unless if you've already asked lol) Edited September 18, 2013 by Gen5is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gen5is Posted September 20, 2013 Share Posted September 20, 2013 please roll all 4 corners. thank me later I was thinking that.. but i checked my fronts and rears. The front is already rolled? and the rears wern't.. i guess you could roll the front more where the guard liner meets the fender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
