Woooo RIMS at last!!!! 20's >:)

Old











The back tires are starting to rub pretty bad, it sucks but overall I am happy with it. I really dont want to spend more on rolling the wheel wells so I might be selling them

They are 245/35/20 and 20x8.5 rims

Thanks for the help Tim (I just need to get this rubbing problem fixed asap with as little money as possible )

Thanks! I might need to get a different shot but the tires in the back stick out a little so getting them rolled would help I though + theres a chance of chipping paint....

Those rims look clean on there. I think you need a slight drop. Looks nice though.

you need to use a heat gun to heat up the paint so it gets soft and doesnt chip

I used to roll fenders at Saleen, just cut the paint with a razor blade on the underside of the fender lip so the paint chipping doesn't happen on the fender itself, then beat the inside of the lip with a rubber mallet. Then tape off and paint the underside lip with undercoating. Nothing to it.

Look great. If your going to spend money on 20s go ahead and roll the fenders. Its not hard or shouldn't cost much. You'll regret it later if you sale them. Use the search, their is a DIY on rolling fenders.
