Got them put on Wednesday and no rubbing! The rear wheels are +38 offset and there isn't too much room (about the width of my pinky) between the tire and rear fender so I am really happy I had the rears rolled. Don't know if I could have gotten away without rolling but I am glad I didn't have to find out the hard way...

19x8.5 +40, and 19x10 +25
I need spacers in the front. I was thinking about going +10 or +12, hope that doesn't rub!

Is there a lot of rubbing in the rear? What tire size? I picked up a set of M3 359M ZCP wheels that are 19x10 +25 in the rear. I'm hoping 275/30/19 RE-11s will fit. Might have to raise the rear a little bit. Do you think they'll fit with a fender roll? |

I don't rub in the rear unless I have a full car and hit a bump. If it's just me and my girl cruising, it doesn't rub. That's probably why I still haven't gotten my fenders rolled yet.

I rolled mine myself today. I think I did a good job if I may say so myself. Using a heat gun and IR thermometer made the job very simple. It was pre-emptive, in anticipation of the 359Ms.
If anyone trusts me, I can roll your fenders. If not, you're welcome to borrow the roller and try it out yourself. |

Had mine done at butler in marrieta and it doesn't look like much was done. Cured most of the rubbing, but I still get a little. Guess I was hoping to ..."flatten" the inner a bit more. Do you gave pics of yours after? Thanks |

I'll take some photos this weekend. It's very difficult to get the inner to roll flat against the outer because of the thickness of the metal. If you are too aggressive, the fender will actually flare out before the inner lip becomes flush against the fender.

NiVeDh, you got the 359 wheels? those are my all time favorite. i saw the guy in NC selling some for a good deal but wondered about fitting w/out a rolll... plus cash is tight right now. I'd love to see picks of the fender, especially with new wheels.. good job.

Good looking ride.
From what i can see, fenders look good. Did you take before and after pics of the inner fender? I need to get with you to work my rear fenders a bit. Anyway, thanks |

Cool. It's for a Porsche so the bolt patern is really big. 5x130. Is it the Eastwood roller you have? I think those have to have a special Porsche adapter plat or something...
