Default Fender rolling in Miami?

So I got new tires yesterday and my drivers side rear tire rubs on my fender whenever I go over bumps or big dips in the road. Does anyone know any reputable shops that can roll fenders? Or if anyone knows how to do it themselves. Then again there is always the chance that maybe my spring or shock is worn, but that seems unlikely.

Thanks guys!

It is easy to do yourself, just take your time and use a heat gun.

Yea I was considering doing it myself. I don't have an actual fender rolling tool though. Any recommendations on anything else I can use? I was thinking using a metal pipe or a broomstick style wooden rod. Just some ideas out of the blue. Heat gun is a must though.

You need to apply a fairly large amount of leverage, so if you don't have the fender rolling tool, i guess you could use a wooden bat. But i would think that the broom stick would break.

there is a shop in hollywood that has done a good job mounting wheels/tires. I know they also do fender rolling. i can't for the life of me remember the name of the shop though. if you check on tire rack's website for authorized tire installers in hollywood, they are listed. It is not like a tire kingdom.. the name will stand out.
