Roll fenders?

Just a question for those who are on coils or springs. Did you have to roll your fenders? Does it depend on how low u go? Getting conflicting info on the site. I have a 08 sedan about to put on bc coils.

Thanks.

Fenders don't need to be rolled just for lowering purposes.

One would roll fenders depending how aggressive they want their wheel setup or what size wheels they choose.

Lowering is just a minute part of fender rolling reasoning....not that it's not taken into consideration, but wheel aggressiveness/tire sizes is a little more important when trying to decide to roll fenders or not

Keep in mind the lower you go the more the wheels will tuck in, then you get the camber arms to pull the bottom of the tires in to square it up so you'll have even more room between the tires & fenders.
Like Rad said, if you have a very aggressive offset w/ wide rims then you may get to the area where fender pulling would be req'd., but not just from lowering your G w/ typical offsets & wheel widths.

Depends how low you are lol.

MOST people don't slam their Gs. And the ones that do usually have tucked wheels and not flush.

I have seen VERY FEW Gs with rolled fenders since I've been on this board. Not saying it hasn't been done, but most people elect to match their drop with the correct offset and aggression.


Asking "flush wheels roll fenders?" Is a little vague. We would really need more info like wheel size, offset, tire size, lowering distance or height from ground to apex of wheel well.


Provide some more info and the wheel experts/****** would be able to tell you probably.
