Yes , that is indeed my car in the picture. And yes, I had to do ARP extended studs upfront to fit that 12mm spacer due to the fact the bare minimum you can get a bolt-on spacer in is 15mm.

The fronts are flush with no rub or aggressive negative camber, I don't even rub on full steering wheel lock. Only a slight rub on the inner fender lining tab on the passenger side but I know why and is something minor that I overlooked.

As for the rears, I plan on doing 5mm spacers to flush it out and my only concern is if I can get away with running the spacers on my stock studs or will I have to go ARP studs. I've researched plenty and it seems to be 50/50 depending on wheel design and how safe you feel with leaving it that way lol.

So keep trying to be funny or an *** whatever your trying to do. Once again i didnt delete squat. To be honest i was wondering what happened to some of the posts myself. Anyways keep up the negative posts guy.

CBRD is a well respected shop in PA, their website kinda sux (sorry Chad, spade is a spade) but they are more then willing to help you if you called or PM'd them I'm sure!....

seach on the sight or google, Chad Block Racing Development... CBRD. You'll find it.

There is paint sealant, use paint, clear coat, and/or undercoat (black sticky stuff) would be the way to go.... all of the above, as long is it is sealed from the elements it should be find.

ps. you won't need to cut the entire lip off... that would be a mistake.. meaning... the entire lip from front to rear of the fender, and also the entire lip width making the fender lip flush with the outside surface. Make sense?

Yes your info and fender trim is exactly what im gonna do. I am not gonna cut the whole thing off flush with the outside of the fender that would be just a stupid move. I am gonna go little by little to see what i can do to make it clear. This has been very helpful info. thank you

The OP asked for tips about fender rolling, and all he got was bashing.

For all of the high and mighty anti-stancers, tell me: what's your effective offset on your +30's with a 10mm spacer? Hmm......

OP your fronts will be easy to work around, but in the rear you will need to roll flat, do a moderate pull after rolling, and most likely re-locate the bumper tab. You'll rub where the quarter meets the bumper, so to solve that, you can cut the inner lip of the quarter at the bend so you can roll it flat, if that makes sense.

The dude even said he doesn't want to run camber, so he's clearly not going for stance, so yah'll can calm down.

good points. and a lot of guys that claim no rubbing with +20 offsets and decent size tires, they have to drive like women if they dont rub stock fenders. heck, +30 9's with 255 star specs rubbed on my car.

Oh, I know. I started a thread about a 265/35 and everyone claimed no rubbing after a roll/pull. I drive my car like a man and needless to say I only have half my sidewalls left .

I guess sometimes u have to wait through all the nonsense to get to the posts that actually help. For the guys that posted the last few, thank you these posts they were very helpfull. Ill search for help on pulling fenders because that is not something im familiar with. Any tip, tricks etc... would be helpful tho.
Thanx again
Luke

I would say watch YouTube videos and have a friend over to lend a hand for when you roll them, if you're mechanically inclined. You gotta start somewhere, so if you never try it you'll never learn. However, by all means if you don't feel comfortable doing it, don't even attempt it.

I just did my own fenders and they came out great. Use ample heat and take your time.
