Fender Rolling?

I'm about to roll my fenders in a few weeks (after I give my fresh paint some time to cure, don't want to crack it). Do you guys have any recommendations? I heard using a wooden baseball bat to roll your fenders is easy, but should I just spend the extra and buy the tool to roll them? I'm just getting tired of my wheels getting scratched up by my fenders.

I'm running 255F, 295R and only SLIGHTLY rub the inner fenders.

It's possible you're just rubbing the inner plastic fender liners. Or the rear bumper bracket. For the rear you can easily shave the liners and bracket.

Or are you rubbing on the front?

No pics and no real information on tire sizes/widths/offset, etc. C'mon man,k you want help, but no real info?

Rubbing all the way around, worse in the rear. I dont take pictures up close of my wheels and body but I have some pics that kinda show the stance.



In the second pic you can see the slight chipping, its from rubbing the liner or something.

275 awfully wide for front tires.

You running spacers? Odd you'd be rubbing so bad in the rear w/o spacers.

Those knicks on your rim most likely just rock chips. Doubt you're getting them from the fender hitting the lip.

Take a picture from the top; are your wheels/tires sticking out?

Again, you probably just need to trim the fender liner and that rear bumper bracket.

Does anyone have any experience with pulling the rear fenders? I've seen some really clean pulled fenders and I have seen some come out terribly.
