Default Fender Roller?

Need to roll my rears... sigh. Even with 245s and 2.25camber with new tires I am rubbing. Was wondering if any one has one that I can rent from you.

Did you relocate the rear tab? My bet is that's where your rubbing, and I know you wanted to avoid rolling your fenders. If you haven't I would try that first and see if it helps. Dent Sport rolled my rears and I was pleased with their work.

I am pretty sure its rubbing on the Fender Lip... last time I checked looks like the molding or w.e is on the lip is all shredded.

Would love to borrow, would you be willing to help for some $ so I don't mess things up?

That's what I thought with mine too, but mine were already rolled but still rubbing. It turned out to be the tab, if you look under your car you'll see the tab and should be able too see whether it is or not the cause or it, should show signs of wear.

i personally havent done it on my s2k, but im willing to help if needed. where are you located?
it's best to do it when it's warm out so the fender doesnt cool down as fast while rolling.
i did it on my ep3 in middle of winter in garage and it failed horribly (with cracked paint, etc).

I am Located in Boston area. I ended up relocating the tab and it was rubbing on both, the fender lip and the tab, now that the tab is gone I don't think that the rubbing is that serrious on the fender lip. I will hold off on rolling until mid summer like you suggested. I'll stay in touch and if need be would love to rent that roller from you. I would be more than happy to drive up, pick it up and when I am done drop it back off.
