Fender Rolling

So I assumed I could shove some 18x8 with +32 offset wheels on my CL with it being lowered and all but that isnt the case. It rubs on all 4 corners and I need a fender rolling bad because I want to have my new rims on soooo badly for the nicer weather.

Where in Chicago can I get help with this? Do any of you have experience in rolling fenders or have a hook up at some body shop that does it quite regualry?

I would try using a baseball bat but I really dont wanna fuck my car up too badly

I would cut it vs rolling.

How much room do you need?

I had mine rolled by Midwest Eurosport which normally only does Porsches but my dad knows the owner so he made an exception. He charged me $100 a fender. You can call and see if he would be willing to do it on another Acura. They did a good job and I'm pleased with mine.

I got you, Steve. PM me and I'll send you info. I hooked Jesse (ZEUS'O3TL) up with the same guy.

BTW, $100 a fender is FUCKING ridiculous.
