What exactly is meant by "rolling" your fenders??? I'm putting a 2.5" drop on my 95accord.

look no further, basically if your offset on your rims is too low then you may run into your tires rubbing your fenders.
This trick is only good for if you rub with the car in a straight line.
Not on extreme turning

nice job.
you beat me too it...i was going to post that link also
i have to admit....looks kinda scary huh?!?!?
using a baseball bat like that.
but HEY...it works...and it's a lot cheaper than paying someone :)
I wonder how much this actually helps.
Just curious to know how many mm the fenders was push out.
And also....if they stay like that...and not have the natural reaction to pop back to where they were to begin with.

ANOTHER " TRICK OF THE TRADE" TO ROLLING FENDERS IS TO HEAT UP THE PAINT WITH A HEAT GUN AROUND THE WHEEL WELL , UNTILL HOT TO THE TOUCH. THIS HELPS PREVENT THE PAINT FROM CRACKING ALONG THE BEND. I GUESS A BAT COULD WORK, BUT WHY WHEN I CAN USE A REAL FENDER ROLLER AT WORK. TO BAD ITS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH MOST HONDAS. GOOD LUCK IN YOUR ADVENTURES.........

By the way if you know that your fenders have been repainted, especially repainted over a previous paint job, (shitty body shops) without prepping, primer several coats, blabla, clear coat/flex additive then your paint will spider web. Factory paint is best, and the heat gun method is, not a bad idea. Or you can go to a body shop and put the risk of fuck ups in there hands
