those running aggressive offsets double digits, how much fender work have you guys done...just roll and max pull or did some persuasive banging/dolly work on the fenders.

Only advice I can give you is pull to fit.. Don't throw the roller on and go to town and do a max pull when the wheels you may be rolling on, might not be aggressive enough for that sort of pull.. Start off slow and work your way out! Its a learning process and actually takes quite a bit of time, work and tweaking to get **** sitting proper!

Camber and toe adjustment is your friend.

Celso, with my previous fenders , I had them clamped , pulled, phonebook, and straight out hand pulled . That's why they ended up looking like **** .

With my new fenders I just got , Shane only clamped them and did a nice even pull. and my front specs are 10.5 -7

my initial roll and pull was good for a aggressive setup but not good enough for a 20x12-5 in the rear.I dont have any toe adjusted in the back nor front(but thats gonna change) also and I don't want to run insane camber.

I wanted to go wide as possible by all means but keep stock body lines. Reason is with my upcoming setup I'm going to need meaty tries when I hit the track and that extra wide width will help but don't want to look "caca" when I'm rolling on my "proper" setup.

I just had body work done and car repainted a diff color but keeping DG in certain areas so I can say I'm DG in essence and still post here lol!!!

How wide are you pulled chris from stock or others with aggressive offsets? I'm trying to gauge in comparison with my setup out of curiosity.

Good advice, I initially had a different set of wheels the two times I had my fenders pulled. The guy who did my initial work did this, he was very good but on third time I don't have my wheels so he asked for specs and went off of
that. Wheels came in and it sat perfect

Drew, believe me bro, there is no room lol I just have enough room to be able to turn now instead of my 12 point turns lol

Celso, thanks man. unfortunately, I do not have any pics of my rear fender work. but I'd say, I have about a 5mm pull, and I was able to pull of 11.5 -14
