I recently installed the msr 045 on my car wrapped with 225/45/18 tires. Whenever I hit a descent size bump my back tires are rubbing the inside edge of my fendors. Is there anything I can do besides getting new tires. Like bumpstops or something. I do have sportlines.

 

roll the fender lip return; a good body guy can do that without breaking the paint...stress good. then put a thin wheel spacer on the hub...assuming you mean rubbing the inside of the fender well. if it is the fender lip return edge, no need for spacers

 

Bump.....help meeeeeeee

whats the purpose of the wheel spacer?

How much should I look to spend on rolling the rear fenders?

 

#1 is it rubbing the inside of the exterior fender at the return ( the 90 degree 'return' of the fender)?
or
#2 is it rubbing the inside of the fender well where the shock lives.

that will determine need for a spacer.

the right guy would spend about an hour so ask the hourly rate. they have good body shops in Lousiana i am sure

 

Yea they do.....the tires are actually scraping the sharp edge where the fender bends towards the tire

 

ok roll it. canvas body shops in the am. in the meantime go slo over bumps, no passengers

 

you think I could just tap that sharp edge up against the inside of the fender and be done with it

 

sure thats what rolling is, do it yourself if you want to risk cracking your paint. have an expert do it. the chances you will screw it up are pretty good. imho..

 

i didnt screw mine up when i did them....but then again alot of time and a nice heat gun really really help...plus my ricer paint....
but it did take a long time because you dont want to **** up....so i would take it somewhere that knows what they are doing


p.s. qwik- a got a nice little ricer mod for you and the guys ill be debuting soon....

 

Thanks guys

 

I had to roll my fenders, I was cutting my tires on the fender return seam.

 

I can't roll my plastic fenders on the Ion now can I lol

 

Did you do it yourself

 

ok i ended up having to grind them down a good ways....the driver side is fixed.....passenger side still rubbing suggestions?
