For those of you with aggressive wheels... fender roll? pull?

I'm not super low like most of you guys, I'm just lowered on oem 350z springs.
I got some new wheels that are pretty aggressive (at least to me) by offsets.
And am wondering what do you guys do to prevent the tire from being chopped up.

I do not want to get camber arms or anything..

Most of you with aggressive setups, is a fender roll enough? anyone have to pull fenders? please let me know.

I am running Ro_Ja r2-7's

F: 19x9 [245/35/19]
R: 19x10 [275/35/19]

roll should be fine with that setup, they aren't that aggressive at all

Fender roll should get you what you're after.. I have 20s and my offsets are similar to yours.. Fender roll should be done if you lower your car IMO no matter what..

Roll for sure, offsets are no where near what would warrant a pull.

Since you are not really lowered much then you should not need to do anything. Unless you plan to carry around 2 people in the back of your car with a full tank of gas running wildly over speed bumps then I would not worry about it. However if you are still unsure then a fender roll will be all you need.

A simple fender roll would be suffice. What are the specs on the offsets?

And no, those aren't generally considered aggressive by most standards.
