Front Fender Pull?

Whats up everyone,
I know the fronts are already pre-rolled, but for all you guys who have agressive fitments, how much more clearance can you actually get by pulling the fronts. I also see there's a couple of nuts on the underside of the front fender...do you just roll over those? Thanksss

One of our members at a meet had a sedan and claimed his pull resulted in close to 2 inches. It was perfect and looked absolutely bitchen!

You won't get 2 inches. You can get an extra 10-15ish mm's of clearance. I did a light pull on the front of my sedan. Make sure you REMOVE the screws that hold the fender liner to the lip of the fender as they will poke through when you roll the fender. I had a serious brain fart while doing mine and it made a little protrusion on my fender.

The coupes have 1 bolt that holds the fender to the bracket on the side of the headlight. I just installed spacers yesterday and ended up putting 4 lock washers between the bracket and the fender hole, pushing the fender and bumper out about 1/2" Im gonna grab a barrel spacer from work on monday and replace the washers. Helped my setup a ton, I was rubbing hardcore yesterday, tonight I only rubbed like 2wice. Mine are already rolled flat against themselves

If youre rolling or have an aggressive setup, definitely take the liner clips off and all screws in the wheel well.

Damn I was wondering the same exact thing about those 2-3 screws that connect the fender lining up front on the coupe as well. I am running 225/35/20 up front on 20x9.5 +5 and I rub everytime i turn the wheel or make a regular turn (not sharp). And I also rub up front when approaching an entrance extremely slow at an angle.i Will I be able to fix the rubbing issue by removing these screws off completely and get away without having to roll the front?

The main thing I rubbed on is the inner fender bracket. My tire rubbed thru the fenderliner and where the bumper attaches to the fender there is a bracket that I trimmed back also.

Well today i raised the car up, removed the front wheels and took off those 3 screws holding the fender liner to the fender and removed the clips that went along with it and now it doesn't rub anymore. Hopefully i won't need to roll the front fenders now cause that seemed to have taken care of the issue. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
