I just slapped these 18x9.5 wheels with 265/35/18 tires on my car and I need to do something about my front fenders. I had rolled my rear fenders on Friday and everything went well, but I am rubbing on the fronts now. Has anyone rolled their fronts? BTW, I am running a 5/16 inch (~8mm) spacer to clear the caliper.
I know I can get aftermarket fenders but I just don't want to do that right now. And I don't want to put a rediculus amount of negative camber just to clear fenders. Any info would be great. Thanks.

There is a fender rolling tool available. it's a little pricey, however it does a fantastic job. Link: http://www.tirerack.com/accessories/tools/fenderlip.jsp
I would put -1.5* of negative camber in there though.

BTW: Post more pics of your car with those rims...Pleeeeze.

I've got about 1.5-1.75 negative camber in the front. The pics I took are pretty crappy, but I'll post a couple at the top. I do have that tool right now, which I used on the rear already. I just need to know if the front fenders are rollable.

get an eastwood roller. There are guys here n there who have the tool and will charge u a few bucks here n there to do the job. Theres a local guy here in Central Cali who does it front and back for $80.00

Also, this might better fit in the Wheels/tires/suspension forum.
