An extra 26mm on the outer side. Is your car lowered? If so, on what, and how low?

If you're not lowered, then you will be fine as long as you don't load up the car too much.

If you lower it, then you should do a mild drop so you could still have passengers and whatnot without rubbing.

We are getting wheels that are : 18x7.5 and have a +41 offset. We also will be running 215. We currently have a no drop but want h&r sport springs, Which will likely rub. Will rolling fenders help? or is there any mod i can do to not rub?

Yeah, you can cut the tabs and roll the fenders. That'll help.

How much does it normally run to get fenders rolled?

Besides the offset, if you're dropping your car I'd suggest rolling and cutting the fenders. Coinsidence can bite you in the ass. You never know when you're going to have 3-4 people in the car, take a turn, and the fender catches the tire just right to rip it apart.

You can do it yourself.

Jack up the car with the tire on, put a baseball bat (or something like it) between the tire and the fender. In other words, wedge the baseball bat against the fender, resting on the tire.

Then slowly lower the car, and start rolling the bat back and forth. This will bend the edge of the fender.

This is basically what most shops do. If you wanted to take it to a shop, I don't think it would cost more than like 50 bucks to do it, unless you want the shop to bend it then repaint, which could get ridiculously expensive.

$50 dollars doesnt sound too bad... If I do do it by myself do I bend the fender outwards or upward? Will there be any negatives or damages that could happen? Can you plz post pics of rolled and unrolled fenders?

this may sound stupid... but when you roll the fender, is this visible??

hemants

not really

Think of your fender as a "J"

rolling is like squeezing the J to make it narrower
