I got lucky and my buddy had an eastwood roller so he just did mine for a pack of smokes.

 

once you pull your rears be sure not to lean against the rear quarter panel.. EVER. a buddy of mine did that at a car meet and now i have a huge dent.. i put a deflated football on the inside of it and pumped it up and left it back there.. but it got cold, and the football shrank and now i haz dent again

 

I pulled my fenders with phone books and then it made it into a bunch of silly internet magazines. You just have to be careful, take your time and remove the little plastic thingies in the lip.

Also I have 18x9.5 -4 in the rear currently with -7* camber and 215/45 tires. 245s on a 10.5 +0 is going to need ALOT of work

 

Thanks again guys. All Ur info has helped on my decision to just roll and pull instead of shave.
Migs - I'm on the same air setup as MDSC. Megans with UAS. I can pretty much slam it.
I'm going to search for a reputable person to do my pull. I do most of my work on my car, but I think id rather have someone with experience do this job. Anyone know someone around the San Diego area?
Here's my project. I have to fix that dent before the roll.

 

rent an eastwood roller if you can
or buy one
or go to a shop that has one


use a heat gun when doing it to make the metal stretch easier




using a phone book, wood, or a bat or something is just ghetto and it wont come out right


rolling the front fenders will look weird. just buy vertex 25mm fenders and that will solve the fitment issues.

 

noob question here, but whats does shaving the fenders mean? Is that where you cut off some of the lip so that its easier to roll?

 

My last sc I cut the lip so i didnt have to roll. But I didn't have to pull so i was good to go

 

Not trying to thread jack but i have a question which is I rolled my fenders with a rubber melt and heat gun it came out pretty good but also a little uneven, so how would I be able to fix this uneven problem?

 

Shaving the front fenders on my SC looks perfect. There isn't 2 pieces of metal on front fenders, its one layer of metal. My fenders still look oem, not cracked paint and wavy from trying to roll them flat. SC fenders have huge metal tabs and lots of holes after you take off the metal trim piece. Not an easy fender to roll. I like it to look oem, not all ghetto. Yes People have done a pretty good job on the fronts wit lots of hours and possible new paint. That doesn't mean someone can just rent a fender roller and its going to turn out perfect.

 

Why don't you just add more camber? With some camber you would just need a mild pull.
Edit: With 225 or 215 front tires you wouldn't have to pull fenders at all.

 

I actually plan to add camber as well. Just not trying to get so much negative.

 

U think I should put the 235s in the rear and get 225s for the front?

 

I roll with an eastwood, heat gun and newspaper(taking up to four hours on a G37). The news paper is the last resort and comes out great when heat and the shock is unbolted. Every car that I have performed the work on has come out great. So as everyone said just get someone with experience to perform the job.

 

As someone who has rolled fenders on too many cars, I can tell you heat, patience, and time will get it done with anything but wood. Wood will create unevenness and make it look bad. A quality heat gun, and a jack will help, jack the wheel up to ride height and get the fender nice ant hot. Do not burn the paint. Take you time and work the metal out. Don't force it too much. If you feel the need to shave the rear, have the seem welded and treated to prevent rust.

 

Yes 225s on front would make things a lot more easier. I think the rear tires are fine already. You just need more camber and a little pull.
Streches would look almost the same (front and rear) if you have the 225s on front.
