I think they're sexy *** hell and it'll kill me to sell them. If I roll my fenders, what do you think my rubbing issues would be like. I'd rather not sell the tires I just bought a brand new one for 120.

Hope that's a spare tire... and that you're not matching a brand new one with an old one.

No one will be able to say for sure what rolling your fenders will do. You're just going to have to do it. You could always be one of the cool kids who runs camber to fit their wheels. That's a relatively wide wheel to begin with, with a wider tire, and an offset that could be higher.

I don't understand why now that you have the wheels, you seem afraid to act without finding out what to expect first (rolling your fenders), but this is only after you buy a set of wheels + another tire without knowing if they'd fit on your car lol

If you're committed to keeping the wheels and these tires, then you know what you have to do. First roll your fenders and test fit them, and then decide whether you have to pull fenders or not. My guess is that you will.

By the time you do all this custom body work, it would have been easier and possibly cheaper just to replace the tires.

That was my question. Just wanted to know what's cheaper. I'm going to roll the fenders and decide from there. Should I pay 100 for the rolling or is that a ripoff and do it myself.

I did mine myself with absolutely no problems. Heat gun and wood bat

I was going to use the heatgun and bat method. How long does that take and do you have any pointers on doing it.
