don't do it!! well, if you do...don't have them go all the way to the rear bumper...cuz its gonna get flared out. kinda hard to explain but if you ever wanna see what happens, lemme know, i can show you. funny thing is when i slammed it w/ 5mm spacers on a +17 offset...10.5" rear...i still didn't rub...not even close...well my camber might have been a lil off. but still...far from it. but yeah, depending on what kinda set up you're going for, i'd recommend NOT rolling your fenders unless you absolutely have to.

yeah, i had'em done. ...like i said, i had a 10.5" wide rim w/ a +17 offset w/5mm spacers...slammed. ...and yeah, it wasn't really that close. i'll show you a pic. but yeah, a stock 18" rim is only 8" wide w/ a +35 offset(think those are the specs)...so it'll definitely clear...no problem. plus, being slammed that low..is totally impractical...but hella nice. if you daily your G...you prolly wouldn't wanna slam it that low. whenever you're free, you can see for yourself, or maybe one of the next cruises. i can show you my rolled fender and how bad the underside of my car is.

I stopped by munkeyworks the other night, and looks like he had a fender roller at his shop. so you might wanna check how much they do it if you do want to do it. but yes, I've seen beangrowers fender. I wouldn't do it unless you really really really had to.

^ lol. crackers mang!! you can't even go most places normal dropped G's can. remember, you always go different entrances/exits from me. i guarantee you can never bring your car to work if you worked with me. i go through manhole covers popping up 10 feet!!!

also, to add to the fender rolling thing. the tire choice is very important. you can clear easily with a 275/35 dropped on stechs. any lower you'll have to roll them. if you choose a fluffy fatty tire (e.g. toyo, bf, good{crap}year) you'll have rubbing issues. some go with 35 series in the rear, and some go with 30 series. falken, dunlop sp9's, fuzion zri's, will provide clearance.
