Im trying to get an idea of what the b5 will look like with some wheel spacers and rolled fenders or even seperate, so if anyone has got any pics throw em up and any comments or feelings on rolling fenders at all would be great. look forward to seeing em.

 

well, ummm....if fenders are rolled correctly, there is nothing to see...lol

wheel spacers are for those who bought wheels that weren't wide enough....


pick up a set of wheels that are 8.5" wide, then roll your fenders and drop your ride a couple inches on c/o's.... Tuck is teh sex if the stance is proper

gl!

 

not my car (again not my car) but here is a pick of a b5 with rolled fenders.

 

hey cab , i really love your car!....lol

any pics of it from the side?...i'd like to see the dish in the back!!!


sexy car!

 

ask and recieve, if you scroll down far enough you might just see a pic that I posted somewhere else on the forum (ie. in m wheel thread, this is kinda my new inspiration)


clicky for picky

 

dude, that is one sick ride!....

I just realized that it's a deep dark purple....

too bad its naturally aspirated

besides that, I wish my car looked that freakin clean!...I love the poke in the back!


too bad he got rid of those wheels, I don't like his new wheels at all!

 

NOOB QUESTION...[8D]..what does it mean to roll fenders?? never really came across this before.

 

basically there is this little lip of mettle on the bottom of your fender which when you A) put wide tires on and/or B) slam the car to the ground, will rub the tires (which is not good), so when you roll the fenders you essentially roll that lip back so that you can get your car lower to the ground/put wider tires on, without rubbing the inner fender.

You can also just cut this piece of metal off, but then your quarter panels will not be as strong and more prone to being distorted f pressure is applied (ie someone leaning on your car)


hope this helps a bit

 

fyi - you can rent a fender roller from ecodetuning.com and I would say it is one of the easiest DIY's I have done..

 

CAB thankx...the 411 much appreciated!...kinda related, i guess, doesn't loweing with c/o's as i assume most ppl do, reduce the ride smoothness and quality? how much does it improve handling?....it is already A-okay in my books...
