Does the tire still hit the fender? It looks like it would.

Can't remember, but I think it was around $200-$250?

Im not too sure if the tire still hits the fender, but if it does, it doesn't cut the tire up like it did before... I am still running the same 275/40/17 tires, but they are on 17X10" wheels now...Haven't had any issues thus far...

if u dont want to spend the cash at a shop your best bet is to rent the tool for about $50 and do it yourself. the key is to not apply too much pressure, heat the paint real good and go slow. there is a member on here from san jose that also rolls..his name has "happy" in it i believe.

Will you show me how to do it? Can you fuck anything up by doing it wrong? the car is going in for paint shortly, so I need to do this first.Thanks.

Thanks for the pics Epic.

I have rolled the quarters on a variety of different vehicals and fox body Mustangs have been the most difficult to get right due to the way the quarter is constructed. It is very easy to make waves in the outside edge of the wheel well on a fox. Which on a car that is going in for paint isn't such a big deal, but on a car that alreay had nice paint it could be a major issue.

Drew, how long does it take you to do it? and what do you charge?

It takes a few hours to do a fox body and I charge $200

does it it just roll the top or does it roll them all the way around? I need to get my 91 done in a little while.

Drew (Yellow94GT) rolled the fenders on my 03 Cobra and did a great job. My car went to AED with only 3,000 miles for a make over. It was a bit more trouble getting my car over to Sac, but well worth the effort. My fenders (and everything else) came out 100% perfect... If you want the best look no further!
