    We can! You will pay an arm and a leg to have it done professionally. How much extra space do you need? There is a forester on here that fit some really wide wheels previously. I only needed like half an inch to fit the rears, so I just cut the inside lip with a angle grinder. It looks good, can't see that I did it, unless you stick your head under the wheel well. Took about an hour and used some touch up paint that matched to seal everything.

    I believe someone on the boards rented a fender roller. May want to check that out.

    Just remember that when it's cold outside, the paint is more brittle and will crack....ask me how I know this. :D

    I took my Mazda to Butler Tire and Wheel last year and they did a good job on it.

    They used a heat gun and a roller took them about 45 min to do the rear.

    They charged 45 a side.

    Sanders told me about someplace else that was cheaper and still used a machine....Top Hat something or other.

    I don't know if you got my PM but are you willing to loan/rent your fender roller to me? Also, do you have a heat gun? I'd really like to do this soon. My +48et BBS wheels with Bridgestone S03 are rubbing like nuts in hard corners. I pulled the rubber trim pieces off of the rear fender lips and both of them were worn through to the metal.
