Default Need help rolling and pulling fenders please!

Hey guys. I just put in my order for some matte black Enkei RPF1s in 17x9 +45 non-staggered. I want to go with 235/40/17 and 245/40/17, front and rear respectively. Regardless of tire sizes, from the RPF1 threads, I have gathered that I will at least need to roll front and rear fenders, do a bumper tab relocation on the rear, and pull the front fenders. I just wanted to see if anyone has the tools and knowhow to get my fenders to fit my new wheels. Otherwise, any recommendations to local shops will be appreciated.

Thanks and happy holidays!

Put the wheels on first before you pull/roll anything, and then make the car fit the wheels.



Here's a guy who has the same setup except with 255/40/17 on the rear and 225s on the fronts

I'm 255/40/17 all around same wheels and same offset, dropped to 1 finger gap from the fenders. Fenders are slightly rolled. If you are rubbing, just set the rebound 1 click stiffer or raise it 1/4". Non-staggered FTW!

You might want to check your tire sizes as your sidewall is awfully small with 245/30/17. I can semi roll your fenders for you so they'll clear but I don't want to pull fenders on someone else's car as it's risky.

Haha...definitely a typo. Yea, man, if you can help me roll, that'll be great. Do you have the tool or what technique are you using?

Also, for anyone who might know the answer, will trimming of the front fender liner have any adverse effects? My thought is, the fender lining is there to protect against road debris and crap flying up in there. Trimming the fender liner leaves a gap for crap to get up in there, no?
