Remember we could extend this to non-350z owners!!! We could have one big fender rolling party! We might as well create a separate thread for it. But who actually knows how to use the fender roller?

Get a wooden mallet and cover it with a few microfiber towels.. use that to start the bending of it... the roller is a pain if you try to start out with it.. takes forever that way.. also remember to keep adjusting the height on the roller to keep the bend even throughout the entire process

on a 10" rim a 275 wont stretch thats what mine is I need to get smaller tires I wish I had known this b4 I bought tires lol

Get some super stretchy tires, roll fenders, give it a little negative camber and slam that shxt and you have the JDM drifter look!

BTW, I'm about to give my car that drifter look as well! It's on my To-Do list for the winter.
Thanks E10. I bought my tires thinking abotu normal offsets lol I think my next set will be 255's in the rear

You need a heat gun whether its hot or cold out if you dont want the paint to crack...
