it can be done with ease....... you can pull a slight amount too but too much pull will buckle the quarters to caution is advised but rolling is fine

look at your current quarters......they have a semi roll in them already. just imagine it completely flat up against the inside of the quarter panel and thats what you get

yeah that little lip that isn't rolled is what cuts into your tires. you wont be able to tell a difference from the outside most likely

its rolled..... its what cuts your tires because its not a complete roll.

look at most old cars that lips completely flat all the way around and doesnt even have a partial roll. guys use use hammers to roll their fenders. if it wasent rolled it would look like the quarter does down by the rocker.

mine are rolled, there isnt really much to roll, you will get maybe 1/4 inch clearance in the rear, the main part you want to roll is where the rear fender kind of tapers as the fender comes down towards the front of the car... thats where the tire will grab the fender and rip it down. i dont really have rubbing issues on the front so i didnt roll them, it just touches the fender liner every once in a while.
