^ it got locked, but there is very little traffic over there these days so it's easy to find.

Elvis, we're bitcin' about it because it's another short cut. Just another thing not done "right"

I emphasize the right because right is debatable to some people.

I'm still a little bit confused. Is rolling fenders a necessity nowadays even if you don't rub?

I never specifically gave the car "respect" in the article for not having it's fenders rolled.

^ yea I looked for that.

No, it's part of the fitment and it's a safety precaution.

Sure those cars are bagged and don't have to worry about (the men here are static though ) but it's all in the look. I'd rather see some dirty tsurachi than mangled sidewalls and no work done on the fender.

If he can pull that off without having to roll the fenders, more power to him. Like I said though, I didn't expect people to feel like rolling fenders is a necessity if you don't rub. Sounds strange..

Rolling fenders allows you to dial in the camber so you get the maximum amount of poke. I don't see a reason not to roll your fenders if you are running a stretch/poke setup.

My question was geared toward the "respect" comments to the article not the text of the article itself.

Elvis, he clearly rubs. Look at the tires, they're getting eaten.

In that case I'm not sure what to tell you. Didn't think it would be that big of a deal but I see where you guys are coming from.
