I still think cutting is the best way to go though. How flat did you get the flange?
In my experience, most roll jobs just result in the lip being shaped into a V instead of the stock L shape flange. If you cut it, no flange at all thus better clearance
Just make sure them tire dont rub

my fenders are more folded than rolled. they're almost perfectly flat. it just feels more sturdy and i dont have to worry about tires getting cut up by a cut fender.

I've rolled fenders on my previous Volkswagen with stretched tires and such, but for some reason I'm just a lot more freaked out doing it on the Z.
