Rolling Fenders

When having the fenders rolled on a 2004 coupe how does the inner fender go back in-place? Would it just fit or would it need to be trimmed or maybe someone makes an aftermarket inner fender to replace the factory one?

Have you ever seen a fender that's been rolled? All they're doing is bending the inslde lip of the fender up so it's flush inside. There's also fender pulling but requires even more time and patience than rolling. There's a chance of cracking the paint doing either.

I guess I meant pulling.

Actually let me restate my entire question...

I'm trying to put Varrstoen ES1 wheels on my sons g35. I called Varrstoen and they said they have the wheels in 19x9.5 and 19x11. He suggested those two sizes but said we may need more fender clearance.

Are these wheels a good size for the car and if so what, if anything, would need to be done to make them fit?

These sizes are fine. Depending on tire size and wheel offsets, all that would need to done is a simple fender roll.

Stock height or lowered?? Also what offsets? Most people with varr go with around +12 or +0, if you're going with 11" in the rear you might run into issues unless you stretch your tires.

It is lowered with eibach sport springs. I also put eibach A-arms on so it lines up perfectly. I'm not sure about the offset, I was letting the Varstoen guy suggest what he thought was best. He did mention stretching the tires. What offset and tire size would you suggest?

BTW... I'd prefer not to stretch the tires unless I have to

I mess this up every time, including when I ordered them. It's not sport springs, it's pro springs. Those names seem backwards to me. I meant to buy the most aggressive drop but didn't.
