Default How to role your fender wells?

Well I just put my Autocross tires on for shits and gigills. But, I forgot that I had slammed the car all the way down. So I went over the RR tracks on Independence and WHAAAAM I cut the sidewall on my brand new tires.

So can anyone tell me the best way to roll the edge on my fender wells up without damageing the paint?

take a metal bat or hammer......tap the fender back...be careful though.....and judge how hard you hit it cuzz on the inside it gonna look warped if you do it wrong....on the outside you aint gonna tell......oh yea you have to take your tire off and hit the inner part of the fender

jack car up......insert baseball bat between fender lip and tire...lower car SLIGHTLY roll bat back and forth between the 2......works well......as long as you don't drop the car down quickly onto the bat.

Default rice my ass

No I just cut a slice out of the side wall. Thank God it wasnt worse. Although Azenis are cheap so if it did damage the time it isnt that expencive to replace.

But I did raise the rear of the car a quater inch.
