Uh, yea you kinda just sorta made an *** of urself. You roll your fenders to allow for a wider tire for more grip. You should let Robert Fuller from Robi Spec know that his suspension upgrade, that provides awesome results, is rediculous and pointless. You should also tell all the people that have flown him out on their own dime that they're robi spec suspension upgrade is rediculous and pointless.
Didn't your mother teach you that if you don't have anything usefull to contribute then you shouldn't contribute at all?

No ****.. always quick to look down on hondas too.. wtf is wrong with people..Hondas are great cars. Plus a lot of hondas also use big slicks to drag race so they roll fenders for that as well. Dam stereotypes

OK OK people settle down. We have already established DSMEvolution made a mistake by making unwarranted flaming accusations. Lets get back on topic. So far we have one picture of the rear end of the car, which gives us somewhat of a perspective. Maybe no one has any more pictures?!

great thread. I want to run 285s on my new wheels too and I would really like to see some pics as well.

Kevo, do you have any more pics from other angles? I was thinking of running wide fenders up front, but I didn't want it to look funny with the rears still stock width.

I have done several Audi S4's (mine included) with a heat gun and a baseball bat, the key is to heat the paint slowly and fully before rolling, if you don't it will crack. You can also use a bodywork hammer to roll the fender, it just takes longer. Heat gun on one hand and hammer in the other.
