I honestly don't know. But considering that HRE makes the wheels to your exact specifications, I would imagine that the fenders need not to be rolled.

BKW: Before spending $6K on wheels, make sure you want them. Hahaha. It may look weird with a high offset. I haven't read the thread and haven't researched what offset you guys run, I'm just trying to warn you before you call HRE to order some wheels. My offset is +28. Not sure if +40 or higher will look "right"

No, I did not roll my fenders. I told HRE I will be hammered to the ground and to give me an offset that will suit my 'needs'

I am running 19x10 (rear) and 19x8 (front). They wanted to play it safe and run 8s in the front.

What do you do about the Tire Pressure Monitor System when putting aftermarket wheels? Can they be transferred? I know I was able to transfer the TPMS on my 2003 DTS to the aftermarket wheels.
Thanks

I'm currently working with a friend who is an HRE dealer. We're waiting for confirmation on the size of the lip. If the lip is too shallow, the wheel wont look right.

I'll be in Tokyo later this year and again for the auto salon next year. I'll see if I can pick some stuff up or get some ideas of what I want to do.
