To see if a fender is rolled or shaved, we would need to see the inside of the fender. They are definitely not pulled.

I think I looked at all the pictures/links you provided, and none of them had any pictures that could identify a rolled or shaved fender. They are definitely not pulled.

Based on how much sun is hitting the top of the tire, I'd guess those wheels sit pretty flush. If I wanted to replicate that setup, I'd shave the fenders.

I'm not sure, I haven't shaved mine yet.

I think it totally depends on whether you take it to a professional body shop or your buddy down the road who has a grinder with a cutoff wheel...

To run a 9.5 et22, especially with that size of tire, you'll have to have the fenders rolled.

you can shave the rear yourself, a few DIY's here on the forums.. not sure i'd mess with the fronts as the metal is pretty thin where you need to shave.. The rears you have plenty of room.....

I have the same wheels/size on my car. I can't really imagine running tires that big. You will need to pull the fenders I'd imagine.
I have the front rolled & rear shaved (was easy to do with an angle grinder)

Running 225/35 front, 245/35 rear & it's pretty flush. Running 245 & 275 is going to be rubcity if you're going to be lowered.

it all depends on how low you go. I am on 20's like a 35 offset with 245/35 and 275/35 tucking a bout a 1/2'' of tire with no rubs what so ever and I am in factory alignment spec. I have the fenders roller and shaved. I was actually looking into these same wheels and to a "fat tire" set up. looks like I cant go that low.
