Default Fender Rolling

OK....so now the camber kits are on (frt & rear) and the tires installed... went by Fred Cox and had the alignment and camber set...and now the rubbing starts. I can deal with the front....but the rear is another matter. Can anyone recommend someone \ company that can roll the rear fenders CORRECTLY. Any of you that have seen my car will know that half assed is not going to get it so need a pro here.

Thanx folks!!

sure will...I've seen the apparatus advertised but it is like $500. and that would come out of the S2K fund and we have dipped too deeply into that already!

Get smaller wheels with a +40 or greater offset. Or cut the lips.

the wheel \ tire combination is the same overall diameter as with the stock 15" wheels...i.e. 23.5 ". note subject of post ROLLING...see how CUTTING looks different

I am sorry mr. baller civic owner. But what you will find on the smaller wheels, is that most of them have a good offset/back spacing and also you can run smaller tires then those "stock" 185-65-14 that you refer to. Probably somewhere in the range of a 195-50 tire. And cut the inner lip to prevent your baller status wheels from rubbing, or remove that baller stereo system or get some stiff springs/shocks, better suspension, etc.
