Default Fender Lip Roll in Vancouver?

Hey guys,

Any of you know of a shop that can roll fender lips in the Vancouver area?
If not, does anyone know where I can rent the tool locally?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.
Carib.

^any idea how to get a hold of him or if he owns a fender roller himself?

I might need some fender rolling action to clear my new wheels :P

What size wheels are you running btw?

I've got 9" wide with +35 offset

It's not rediculous or anything, but if I remember what I read correctly, it might be getting a little close.

Do enlighten me.

that I don't know...i haven't heard from him in awhile but he seems busy with his own thing, as opposed to doing people's stuff.

my rears are 10 wide with 38 offset, I'm about 5 mm away from flush.

How aggressive is your roll?
Just folded up the lip or did you have the whole fender pushed out a little?

You've got a 1" wider wheel, so half an inch = 12.7mm more width per side minus the 3mm less offset, so basically you're sitting 1cm closer to flush than my wheels BUT my fenders aren't rolled...yet.

I guess it depends on what tire size I run too.

mine is a medium roll, not even folded flat, the rolling did give me a slight pull

Alrighty, Thanks!

Once I get my coilovers in and decide my ride height, I'll just see how it looks I guess.
Not like I can't drive on stock wheels while I figure it out
