Anybody in the Richmond area got a fender roller I can borrow/rent? I'm looking at some new tires and they're gonna be CLOSE so I'd rather roll the fenders in advance.

It's a pretty new car so I don't want to do the baseball bat roll... :cry:

I used a rake handle (the Miata was just that close!) with no issues.

Delta V has a lip-roller, but the paint on your car is still young enough that it should survive the baseball-bat method.

Alternately, you could go with 700+ in/lb springs and leave the fenders alone... :p

I sometimes have access to one of those nice blue Eastwood/Tire Rack ones locally, email me...
