fender roller woes. i got it!
after putting some 5mm spacers on, i needed to roll my front fenders due to gouging a tire.
jimtweet laughed at me when i picked up a fender roller saying it wouldn't fit. well he was right. ![]() So i picked up a 5x130 to 5x112 wheel adapter. in the photo you can see im running a 5mm spacer and then some wheel bolts to hold the roller on. the stock studs are long so the roller is "sitting" on the wheel bolts. also the bolts had a 22mm head so i was just barely able to tighten them down. this JUST clears allowing the roller to fit into the fender. hope this helps some others ![]() ![]() |

I slotted out the holes on my roller. Fits 5x130 just fine now.
