Fenders on the G37 are pre-rolled from the factory. Also even if you are running a +25 rear, the Falken tires stretch quite a bit so really it's really not a concern.

On the inside of your fender lip it is 90 degrees. By rolling it you push the angle in more so it would be 45 degrees or less. This is done so that the tires are not hitting the fender so there is no risk of a damaged tire/rim or fender.

Soo just picture and L shaped flange being pressed with a upward left pressure to form a V

What offsets and tires are you running? Info please. No need to roll fenders! Drop will make it look even better.

I don't really know anything about offsets

The rear tires say 285/30 99y

Front 245/35 95w

It sits pretty damn close to flush, I'll take a front and back picture.

Got it aligned at the dealership and everything seems pretty good. So happy that's not an issue now.

Happy to hear the fenders are rolled, I will get some springs in the near future and drop it ... What are the average drop distances that you see on this board? 1 inch? Is that not enough?

I need to get a k51 spoiler also, and then I will be pretty much complete!

Thanks for the nice comments.

Thats a good looking car. It seems that Vossens are one of those wheels that no matter which model you get they always look good on the G's
