Default Rolling fenders?

Just put 265/35/18's on the rear and I'm getting some rubbing under compression. Any one know how or where to get the fenders rolled?

Thanks,

Scott- I think that Tobi at TC's has a fender roller that you can rent. Theres a thread on this on S2KCA in the mile high section somewhere.

Damn Simon, that was ballsy! I guess it turned out ok, right? Want to come help with mine? I'll check with Tobi...my car will be there in a week and a half for some work anyway (more boost, yea!!). On a side not, I got my wheels powdercoated "brass"...can't wait for you guys to check them out and let me know what you think.


Kyle - call or email me about those tires!!!

I was going to rent Tobi's from him if you wanted to do a group day. I am having rubbing issues as well and wanted to roll my fenders. Let me know if you end up renting Tobi's fender roller as I would be interested in splitting the cost with you.

Steve,

Sounds like a good idea. I'll look into it.

Just spoke with Barb at TC's....they rent the fender roller for $40. I can pick it up Thursday if that will work? Also, any one have a heat gun? I guess it's best to heat up the area before rolling.

Let me know,

make sure its the fender... i found out that the tire was also rubbing against a bolt for the rear bumper... and occasionally it will rub against the top of the wheel well.

Scott,
I'm available Thursday. Let me know when and where. I have plans at 5 PM so the earlier the better if this is kosher with you.

Steve,

I'm going to try and get rent the fender roller from TC's tomorrow so I'll have it for Thursday. Do you have a heat gun or hair dryer? We can do it at my house or your place if you have a large garage or driveway. I'm in Denver near Colfax and Colorado blvd.

Let me know what you think.

Scott-
