    I'm up in gainesville and was wondering if anybody has had their fenders rolled at a shop somewhat near here with good results.

    thanks. I did a search and found that one along with a few others, but of course everything seems to be down in Atl. I was just hoping for something closer, since most places arent open on weekends or late afternoon weekdays. I may just try removing the plastic edge liner and hope for the best if all else fails. I only got rubbage once my tires heated up, though I am only running a 235 and would like to go to a 255 eventually.

    What 235 are you running? Hoosiers, because I know they come big. I had rubbing issues with my 245 hoosier 16 on my 03 WRX, but I just cut the inside lip of the fender out with an angle grinder. It was really easy and only took about an hour total, including the sanding.

    the tires are RA1's, but the RCE springs I am running are a bit low. The rates are great, just a tad too low. I'm going to call gwinnet collision and try to have it done there.

    GPJames - my car is a white bugeye sedan, street wheels are steel grey rota attacks. Sometimes I've got a roof rack on with a kayak on top.

    Have you considered doing it yourself? I bet there are some others that would want to do it also and you could split the price of renting the equipment.

    I ended up bringing it to Marty at Gwinnet Collision. Unfortunately the paint ended up cracking, although now I have plenty of clearance. He did touch it up though and is only noticeable on close inspection. Price wasn't too bad either. Very nice folks over at Gwinnett.
