Like i said with the baseball bat, it takes time and patience. I have yet to crack paint on any car I have done with a baseball bat.

My car isn't lowered, but I went with 245/35/20 all around. No fender rubbing, just slightly a rub under when turning the car > 70% of the way. I got my rear fenders rolled - but regret that decision everytime I wash my car.

I would try the baseball technique. That way, you can adjust how much pressure and stop when it seems to going wrong. And, whats a baseball bat cost these days?
