vosko, stop being a *****. i run 265's on the front and 285's on the back of my car with no rubbing at all. i rolled the fenders with a heat gun and a baseball bat in about 30 minutes. you will be an *** if you take your car to a body shop to do this because they will roll them exactly the same way i did. i know a guy who owns a high profile rim shop in LI. he outfits many rappers and football players cars with huge rims. guess what he uses to roll the fenders on those $100,000 cars? a ******* baseball bat.



drive to J&R one day this week, and i'll roll them for free for you. you just gotta buy lunch for me and Joe. deal?

well, with the right offset on the wheel, no fender rolling is required at all. I have ran 285 all four corners and have no problem. If you really have to roll it, like Speed_NYC said, baseball bat is the way to go. I cut off the lip of the fender and touch up paint the cut, and with the right offset 335 can be fitted in the rear.

Try calling Brian at M2 Performance for more info on that.
