Rolled Fenders?

stooken · 11-19-2008, 02:37 PM

If a car has the rear fenders rolled for an aggressive offset, will putting rims with standard e92 offset look odd or noticeably different from non-rolled fenders?

EDIT: sorry, wrong forum.

No, people often have a misconception about fender rolling. You are not physically rolling the fender itself. You are rolling the lining on the inside of the fender. Stick your hand in your fender and you will feel a felt type of material around the fender, that is what you are rolling.

ahh.. ok i got it.

so a rolled fender compared to a non-rolled fender looks exactly the same. i thought if you compared both looking from the rear of the car, you could see the rolled fender "rolled" in more.

depends how aggressive you roll your fender. A light roll, you won't notice a difference, but if you're doing an aggressive roll you'll pull out the fender a little in the process.

^^^ True, it all depends on how aggressive the roll is. On my E90 325 you couldn't even see the roll, it truly was just the inner lip of the fender.
