guard rolling or lipping

[cristian]

aye fellas...

i'm about to get some 8" wide rims and its got zero offset...

i know that i'll need to roll or lip the guards when i lower the bastard so i was hoping to get these both done at the same time, i was wondering if any of you's could recommend any workshops, panel beaters, even Ozhonda members who could do this for me?!?

i live in sydney by the way...


the rims...

bro thats gonna stick outside the guard by about 2"

here is +15 offset on an 8" rim, with a shit load of camber, and 195/45/15

imagine it sticking another 15mm out, and then without the pulling in of the top from camber, another 10-15mm, and not having tyres stretched enough.

youre not gonna be able to lower it much.... if at all without epic camber, and even massive guard flaring

roll the gaurds your self, all you need is a steel baseball bat

^^ lol..

Get it done professionally for $$55.00 a corner i think..
I got mine rolled on friday @ work by Nelson from "sydney guard rolling"
his number is 0432109331 and the best thing is he comes to you.

[dudeling7]

apart from guard rolling which is usually around $50 a corner you will need a camber kit for sure.

also what tires are those wheels running? because 195/45/15 would be best for the look you are going for. i think a 50 profile in this case will look too chunk and will not stretch enough.

good luck though man, if you can pull it off it will look sweet as all hell.

bahahahaa

yes man they have them (just cant find the thing atm)

Man a guy made Bolt on guards (on his purple and black AH) with ****ing buckets or something

never would have thought it was but thats what they were made of

[jdm_kid]

good camber kit, and good guard rolling will tuck that in.

[SHOGUNOVDDRK]

Atm these are the best i can find

You can just buy a Universal kit (here or elsewhere) and cut it up etc etc

Shouldn't be to hard or costly

very nice :thumbsup:

I also would like to make car car like this.

Do u think 15x7 will make the same result (but slightly in) like ur car ?

what is the advantage of lower offset ?

lower offset make the wheel stick out more...i think trism's got it spot on with +15...looks flush!

[trism]

thats about neg4 or 5 camber


its so ****ing flush

[55EXX]

0 offset wont fit. flares are a must. i a set of those sport max 15x8s from a mates car and it stuck out a good 4cm+.
