Default How do you roll fenders?

Is there a way to safely roll your rear fenders? Or is this better left to a body shop? I'm trying to get a set of 18" rims 7.5/225 front and 8.5/255 rear. The wheels have +50 offset all around. I'm lowered on kg/mm race springs and don't wanna rub if I can help it.

What wheels are you planning on running?

The reason I ask I am wondering if you will even need to roll the fenders. Someone on the list might be running the same thing and can give you advise.

just drove home on 18/8.5/255 rear and no rubbing. I was driving Ms. DAisy so go figure. I'm thinking of taking it to sprewell since I hear they do a really clean job. I've yet to rub yet, but I wouldn't mind rolling just for peace of mind.

If you go to Sprewell, they'll charge you lots, but if you can afford it...

We do have a fender lip rolling tool that we rent out just for the cost of shipping but the wait is about 4 to 6 months right now.
