I just got my FR500s on my 96 Cobra and the 305-35-18's do not like the fender lips.
I've received several replies from guys in Sac and in San Jose, but I'd like to avoid driving 75 miles if at all possible.
If you know anyone in the East Bay who rolls fenders (or near the East Bay), please let me know.
Thanks!

I tried to today but the Harbor Freight fender roller does not match the FORD 5 lug pattern.
Otherwise they would have been rolled today.
I should clarify that I can do it myself if you have the Eastwood tool, or I would be glad to pay someone to do it who has experience with it.

I tried finding someone local with the Eastwood tool, but didn't have much luck. If you look on Corral.net there are a couple of guys who rent it for $50-$75 +$200 deposit for a 3 day rental.

It could be very easy to modify Blind. Each hole would have to be elongated about 1mm or so.
You know, to me it seems like its a quality control issue since the plate is drilled for various bolt patterns. It would probably take me 1hr to modify it so it fits Ford 5 lug using a dremel, but I don't want to modify your tool.

I know you asked for east bay, but happygmore on this site does it all the time and he's in Santa Clara. I think a lot of caford peeps have already gotten their fenders rolled from him.

I got the green light to modify the harbor freight roller to accept 5 lug FORD bolt pattern.
Might not need this afterall. Will let you guys know.
