Fender rolling

Can someone help me out with this or can someone suggest where to go? I need all four corners done.

 

Sorry to ask but what is fender rolling?

 

You roll your fender to clear wide tires.

 

Joel's is more like..."Hey, grap onto that saw-zaw over there...I gotz some biggazz tyres to fit under here..."

 

Do the fenderliner's fit when you roll your fenders like that? or do you gotta ghetto rig it?

You get a heat gun and bend back the inner edge of the fender to gain a couple millimeters of clearance. I'd like to do it to my wagon before I lower the car so I wont ever have to risk rubbing the rear tires.

That site has everything you need, but it's $50 with a $300 deposit. I dont have that kind of money up front but I'll chip in if anybody else orders one. We could have a fender-rolling day of sorts.

 

with just normal rolling...they fit still. With stompy cutting/rolling/hammering...you have to massage it back in place.

 

Woah, it looks like his outside tires are coming OFF haha. Are they just rolled back that much??? All i see is rim!!

 

Those are 285/35/18's in that pic. Pretty much zero sidewall to start with....plus the rim is wider than the tyre...

 

man, thats crazy . Wouldn't that scrape the wheel? or i guess the tires would be hard enough to keep it from doing that...

 

GTScooby I'm in for a fenderrolling day. I'll put in

 

Thanks

Alex I have pmed both guys to see what info I can get...

 

Some fact:

On our suby's you generally just need to roll the back, unless your crazy like Joel or myself.

Rolling the rear will let you fit larger tires (taller and or wider). Or run a lower offset wheel.

I've never rolled a fender, Marty at Gwinnett Collision rolled (extra 1/4") and pulled (extra 1") my rear fenders.

Why would I do such a crazy thing? To fit 275/40-17s on the car.

What about the front? If your going real wide up front you can cut the stock fenders or get aftermarket fenders.

Where can I learn more about running stupid wide tires and wheels? here:http://forums.nasioc.com/forums/showthread.php?t=845228

 

i think you can probably get a 255 under there with the right offset

 

Pffffft I can't even fit 225 in the back on mine.....quit yer bitching :werd:

 

sure you can, roll your fenders, get stiffer springs, add negative camber :bigthumb:

 

Gonna roll my fenders soon enough hehe
Maybe some nice 235's

 

Come on now Alex. 255s are easy, 275s just need a little rake and sway bar action.

 

Alright, now who wants to split the rental fee for a fender roller?

 

Gimme a few weeks. I'll definitely pony up for this. I'm a bit broke right now cause I just ordered some new brakes. STI Ver6 RA 10.5 inch vented brakes. YUMMY!!

 

Speaking of fenders for sale. We've got our old autox fenders that have to come off of the racecar for the stockers.

You can fit 275s just fine on an 04 if you run some decent springrates. As long as you are on 10/8s you can get 275s on 8" wheels ET35 to fit. Javid with rolled rear fenders and new fronts can get 275s to 285s on 10" wheels to fit.

So what was the outcome of the rental equipment. I am interested in rolling my fenders after a "slight" rubbing issue last weekend at BMW.

 

Here they are

New pics of my wheels and tires Yeah I know I need some fender rolling...LOL

 

SEXY forrest ^^

I think some of us were going to scrounge up some money in a few weeks. A lot of us are broke right now.

 

I'll chip in on the fender rolling. I'd like to run some wider tires later on down the road.

 

Those are some huge wheels! Is this just for daily driving? I don't need the fender rolling equipment anymore. I decided to grind the inside lip of the rear fenders. It turned out nicely, no chips, and enough space.

 

That Forrester is wicked.

I'll put in for some fender roller fees as well.

 

Yeah

I talked with Gwinett Collilsion ( Marty) and he will not be in until Wednesday this week so I am waiting to see what he thinks and if not I may go in with you guys with the fender roller....hnoes:

 

Hey!! When!!

Are you guysz still doing the fender rolling I need to get mine done BEFORE nopi so I can put my wheels on!! if not where can I get them don for a decent price:wiggle:

 

umm...anyone I really wanna put my wheels on!!

 

i guess a good body shop would do it... do u have scott sanders' number?

 

I dont think so...is that the guy from gwinett collision? I may not have to do it gotta put them on first.

 

he's the guy in the blue STi when i had my accident

 

I saw his car at sog when i went to get dent removal is his car for sale?

 

Contact Metrowheels. They do fender rolling for a pretty good price

 

he actually just put 315's on stompy. uh my gud, that's like the width of ford GT rear tires.
