fender rolling

[gheron]

any one know where i can rent one or another way i can do it my fenders are eating away at my front tires with the spacers on and i cant take them off cus my tire will rub on the coils and i dont feel like rasing the car so i need to roll them and buy new tires

ps i already talked to graeme and his is out of town so that option is out.

thanks

Re: fender rolling

Take the fender off, lay it with the lip down on a flat surface, make sure that there is no small rocks on both the inside and out, heat it up a little with a heat gun then pound it flat with a rubber mallet.


Or go get a section of PVC pipe or a baseball bat, and stick it between the fender/tire and roll forwards/back (depending where you start)

Have you banged out that little lip on the inner side of the fender? When I was running 235/40's up front (18x8 et 30) doing that solved alot of my issues. Took like 5 mins/side with a hammer. Also, removing the top screw of the fender liner helped a ton.

The fender roller flattens that lip.


Heres the inside of my fender, Flattened the lip, then seam sealed so no water could get in and sit in there.
