HELP! How do I roll my fenders on my Evo?

Hey I was wondering if anyone here can tell me how to roll my fenders I just have my new rims installed but there alittle rubbing with 2 people in the car and turning hard. I did it before but on an old car it came out ok. But now im looking at doing a cleaner job this time around. If any one has any tips that would be great.

I just moved from Atlanta. If you try one of the performance shops out there (Batlground, Mainstream, Topspeed or maybe Dyno4mance) they should be able to do it for you. All it is a tool that you attach to the wheel hubs and then roll it along the fender. Theres another site that rents them out to you. I thinks its 20-40 dollars, but a 250-350 dollar refundable deposit.

You use this tool that we rent out http://www.paradigmperformance.net/p...ll/roller.html

Its a easy tool to use, you want to make sure you go nice and slow to not damage your quarters/fenders.

Or the cheap way, use a finishing hammer in nice, short foward strokes. Sand it first so that you won't crack the paint OUTSIDE the fender (very important regardless of how you do it), then bend it, then smooth it out, then paint back over it. Simple 1 hour job.
