If I do coilovers, I want to roll my fenders so I will no longer have rubbing issues. So my question to everyone is, what is the cost usally to have all 4 fenders rolled? I would love to slam the hell out it, and don't want any rubbing. Any advice would help out. And what kind of coilovers should I go with?

this is why you don't go 2" bigger than stock maximum. 19" should have been your choice, but i understand with your rim choice and size limitation.
wait till tein and tanabe come out with theri coils. JIC's are very very nice just not controllable form in cabin

DJ... rolling the fenders wont do anything for you. when the fenders are rolled they are refering to the lip of the fender. the coilovers will help you out, but the best thing to do is either bend that piece of metal that sticks out or hammer it flat. mine plastic hasnt worn away that bad, but now that i see there is metal behind it ill probably end up hammering it and heating the plastic a bit.

The only benefit the coilovers will have over the springs is the ability to change the ride height in this situation. Therefore, you can adjust them to the maximum amount of drop just prior to rubbing. The only question is: will that drop be enough or not?
As others have mentioned, your OD is too large.
