Does anyone know of any shops o nthe bay area (closer to San Francisco if possible) that has good results rolling fenders?
My back left 255 keeps scraping whenever i really floor it or make hard turns (basically most of the time, lol). I don;t want to get new wheels or adjust the shocks at this point. Thanks! |

Easy to do at home with a pair of channel locks and a thin pine board wrapped in a soft shop towel (to protect the outer side of the fender). . .you can also use a short bit off heater hose to protect the inner lip if you wish, but rolling the fender will likely crack the coating anyway, necessitating a touch up.

Yea, most fender rollers will not fit due to the lug pattern. I think there's an adapter you can buy, but we just modified ours.

Hey just for the record Jonathan did a great job on my roll, and also did a great alignment to fix my camber issue. I highly recomend these guys if in the San Jose area! No more rubbing with my 255's, and the baby feels better suspension wise as well (camber was left 0 degree and right -2.6 degree. Fixed both at -2.0.)
