Default Fender Rolling, Shaving, Cutting, Pulling....

Well since I installed new spacers my rear wheels are rubbing a bit. Not sure what the best way to go about fixing this is or where I would take it toget fixed... Anyone have any suggestions let me know, I'm over here in San Jose.

do it yourself.

go on tirerack.com and rent their EASTWOOD fender roller and do it youself at home. just take time in heating the metal and take your time rolling it. all it takes is some patients.

I thought about doing that but heard a few horror stories... But seeing that I may just have to go that route. Looks absolutely amazing.
