How far do you roll the rears fenders? The fender lip runs all the way down to the bottom of the car... where should you stop?
If you're looking at the driver-side, you should stop at about the 10 o' clock area.. any further down than that, you'll get into the thicker sheet metal, which is a bare to roll....

Just give it a nice gradation from a full roll, to the stock lip when coming around the that 10 o' clock area... it'll look good besides, you only get rubbing from the 10:30-11 o'clock area to about the 2:30 o'clock area.. nothing as far down as you had mentioned..

Good luck!


ps, anyone have pics of how to RELOCATE the fender tab??? I need to soon!

i rubbed in the rear with 17X9 +55 offset with a 255/40 tire. Same camber as you -2. Also I am NOT lowered. You will definitely rub with hard cornering with any bumps in road or when you hit bumps at higher speeds. For daily driving you should not rub at all so you can take your time finding a place to roll them.

It wasnt a big deal, shop did a good job. All they did was roll the fender from about 10 o'clock to 3 o'clock and shaved the fender tabs a bit. Also make sure you find a shop with a fender rolling tool stay away from baseball bats! After that my car hasnt rubbed and ive done a few canyon runs since.
