I think that the rears will rub for sure, alignment or not. The front should be fine, but with those 9.5" rims in the rear, the +38mm just isn't enought o avoid the rubbing. I believe a +45mm would eliminate the issue, but not sure if they make that offset in that rim. Godd luck.

P.S. Car looks great. "Go on with your bad self in your DG sedan"!

I rented the tool online and rolled the fenders myself.

I have a 45mm offset in the rear with a 9.5inch rim and 275/40/19. I rub, but I think the tire size causes a part of this, as it seems to be really square on the corners.

How easy was this, I hate rubbing, my fenders are starting to warp and become wavy from the tire rubbing only a 1/16 of an inch on the inner fender lip edge.

Wow, that's a beautiful ride. I might have to consider those wheels for my Silverstone Z. Will have to see if they have the right offsets.

Nickk6- Rolling the fenders in the cars was probably one of the easiest things I have ever done. Alot of the things that I have heard about rolling the fenders made it out like it was really hard. I thought that it was quite simple as in it only took me 45min-1 hour and basically no pain and frustration.

I paid $80 to borrow the tool from an online site for a few days. There are many different sites out there that will loan you the tool for around $50 but they have a wait usually. The place I borrowed mine was $80 but did not have a wait. I hope this information is helpful.

Thanks for all the great comments btw.

My fender roller tool will be here on tuesday, it will be available for rent by the weekend. $40 + shipping for forum members to rent, that is better deal than any other online rental I have found.
