I have the Pros and 20s. The wheels are a little tucked so I haven't had to roll them. At some point, I'm going to install some spacers so I imagine I'll need a fender roll at that point. What size rims and tires are you going to put on?

I'm dropped on Sportlines with 285/30/20 tires in the rear. With a 20X10.5 wheel and a +24mm offset, I have a very slight roll really for a safe clearance. If you post your wheel width, offset, and tire size we can probably give you a pretty good idea of what to expect. If you go with a narrower tire like a 275 you can go even more aggressive with your offsets.
Also, your alignment specs are pretty important too. I actually dialed mine in to -1.0 degrees camber in the rear to fine tune the fender "clearance". If I had to to it all over again, I would have gone with about a +19mm offset for my wheel application.

Good luck!

You wouldn't have to roller the fenders tell you get to the really big sized rim's. For exmaple 20x 11" in the rear and 9.5 in front then you need to roller them

I was told it was better to cut the inside fenders rather than to roll them on the coupes. It had something to do with the double layer on the fenders and the rolling process might cause cracks in the paint. Anyone have experience with this? I'm referring to the rear fenders of course since those will be the only ones that needs cutting/rolling.

well, the front fenders are already rolled from the factory. and why do the rear wheels have to be 20x11 to require a roll?

19x10.5 +24 285/35 -1.5 camber dropped all the way on tein basics, and i had to cut mine.

The G i saw with 20x11"s had an offset of +24 i think. It's been a minute since i saw the spec's. I fit my boys ADR 20 x 10.5" in the rear fine on tein
basic's but i have a negative camber setup right now( sucks for the tire's)
