so i have some new 18x8.5 +30 waiting to go on my TSX.

i've heard that i should roll before i mount the wheels so that i don't ruin my fenders prematurely.

i've also heard that i should just mount the new rims and then do the adjustment/roll afterwards.

for u fitment guys...what do u recommend cuz i've never rolled anything before...except for the "sticky icky" as a youngsta!

any recommendations? right now i'm leaning towards AWD Fitted.

and yes, i'm currently dropped w/ front/rear camber kits and i sometimes scrape my aspec front lip.



i used to have some volks but i sold them and purchased something a bit more aggressive.

 

how low did you drop it?

 

i could probably slip a finger in the rear ahahaha... and barely in the front, but i intend to go lowerrrr once the new wheels are mounted.

 

Personally, I'd go with the roll and then work with it.

 

you normally don't roll it before you put the rims on.

bring the rims to the fender roller, mount them and see how much of a roll you need. when you mount the rim jack up one corner of the car and see how much of a roll you need on the opposite corner that's being pushed down.

 

So mount the wheels first then roll?
I don't wanna eff up my rims/tires/fenders.
Any other legitimate fender rollers in the LA/OC area that I should be looking into?

 

whats wrong with AWD fitted? hes done a few members on here alrdy w/ decent prices

Im sure w/ your specs you wont need anything more than a common roll/slight pull that he's capable of doing lol

 

Its best to test fit the rims then work the fenders. I can do the work for you, checkout my past work. 15 years experience with plenty of forum members cars included.

 

work on wheels then roll.

 

You mount then roll/pull. And if you go towards AWD Fitted then Albert will roll/pull and even drop your car to the height u want to flush or tuck. He will make anything fit.

 

why r u so worried about messing up your fenders? just lower your car slowly and you will be fine. or you can have your car on jack stands and use a jack to push up on the suspension to compress it so you can see how close it gets to rubbing.

 

Thx for all the comments guys...I actually got the work done about a month ago @ AWD.
