Default Fender rolling?

Anyone have this done to their car? Thoughts, experiences?

Do body shops normally have fender rollers? I need to stop my wheels from rubbing so I can tune my suspension.

Default RE: Fender rolling?

Some body shopsdo, some don't. Worth a call to a few in your local area to check on prices.

Also, if you have any tuners nearby (not just Audi), they might have a roller. As things would have it my local shop which installed my PS9s had a roller and did an incredible job on the fronts...went from chewing tires to plenty of clearance. I am more than happy with the results.

One note of caution is that they need to be careful as the B5's can crack paint when this is done. Mine were A-OK and have been highly rolled, just takes someone who knows what they are doing, and lots of patience. If possible perhaps choose someone who has experience with A4 B5's. Lastly, they may also need to trim the plasticinner fender liner a bit. That helps too.

Cheers,

Steve
