Rolling Fenders

Anyone know a shop or place that rolls fenders? I need my rears rolled. Or even someone that has an Eastwood Roller?

Actually Kevin, I only had to roll the rear on my Evo to clear the 285/30/18. The front 285/30 clears fine on 18x10" wheels, but I do run 3 degrees neg. camber.

I had an Eastwood roller but sold it a year ago and I haven't been able to reach the guy who helped me out with the body work. I might drive to where he used to live in Caddo Mills to see if he still does fender rolling, but assuming I find him, most people aren't willing to wait the 3 weeks or so that he takes to do the work.

Offset's a big factor as well. I have 275/35 on 18x9.5 +38. The font clears well with a 5mm spacer bringing the offset to +33. 38 ended up being perfect in the rear as long as I removed the flat inner lip of the fender.

I'm only running -1.5* at this time...until I finally get around to installing my Whiteline parts and do some tire reading...

No its not staggered, there 18x9 +29 and the vendor told me that the rear fenders will need to be rolled with 255/35/18 (tires he recommended) and the front should clear fine. Nobody knows anyone or anywhere that does them? Or someone that has a roller for me to rent?
