I run 245/40-18 and 315/30-18 on 18x9 and 18x11 without rolling the lip and the car is set to 24.25" groung to lip front and rear (very low).

We have had to roll the fenders in the past on some C2/4's that we ran eibach/techart lowering springs, and Techart rims.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

just got a quote from a local shop for lowering, fender roll and allignment for $1k. Yay or Nay...

POST 2Original post

Do you mean install new coilovers (lowering?) and bigger wheels? and corner balance? Just not enough info. But if it includes coilover install, fender roll (install new wheels) and alignment and corner balance it's a deal.

POST 3Original post

Why are you rolling the fenders? Are you planning on putting HUUUUGGGGE whells and tires on it, like 20's? 99% of the time you wont need to roll the fenders with stock wheels or wheels with stock offsets. I actually have 997 19" rims on my car and the rears are 19x11 with a 65 offset. They fit fine with no rolling of the fenders needed. The only time I have seen fenders needed to be rolled is with VERY aggressive offsets, so if you dont plan on that....then you will be fine. Also is that INCLUDING springs? Or is that just labor? If you are lowering a 996, it is NOT recommended to lower with JUST aftermarket springs. The handling is not good, you get a pogo effect, you need a matched set of springs and shocks, or a coilover package....

POST 5Original post

Can you effectively get more lip on a C2 by rolling the fenders or will you hit brake/suspension components before you hit the fender?

POST 6Original post

We have had to roll the fenders in the past on some C2/4's that we ran eibach/techart lowering springs, and Techart rims. The rims were just wide enough that we needed to roll them. $1k is a good price 4 hours to install lowering springs 250-300 for an alignment The remainder for labor and liability of rolling the fenders.

POST 7Original post

Mine came rolled from the factory.... If it includes parts that sounds more than fair.

POST 8Original post

If you have to roll the lips, the wheels are the wrong offset. I run 245/40-18 and 315/30-18 on 18x9 and 18x11 without rolling the lip and the car is set to 24.25" groung to lip front and rear (very low). Adding negative camber will help the handling and help fit the tires.
