I recommend cutting. But it doesn't matter which one you choose it still won't fit, you have to pull. GL.

You'll have to roll the front and cut and roll/pull the rear if you want to fit those. Just be prepared to repaint your fenders and 1/4 panels cus there's a good chance you'll have to. Not tying to bash or anything... just giving you a fair warning. Hope it all turns out good. Oh... and if the shop has never rolled or even heard of it, DO NOT have them do it. If you take it to an experienced shop, all you need to say is "I want my fenders and 1/4 panels rolled" and they'll know. GL man.

wow. this takes some *****.

If you can get your fenders cut, and pulled by the right shop, and repainted since it might be necessary... with the right drop you might just grab the title of FLUSHEST 2IS

good luck

FYI: MrMark ran a 19x9 and 19x10 +22 all around with fender mods front and back.. here's what it looks like.. so imagine what you will go through.. you will NEED to pull for sure!

a cut wont work since i have 9.5 +22 in the rear with a cut and it scrapes still, i agree with dj and isuxel, a cut and pull is probably your best bet

whatever you do, make sure you heat before you roll/pull.

its not like a roll wont work, just the pull has to be slight and not too much. my friend actually had his rolled and in the process flared a little and it looks really good!
