Hey y'all,
I'm looking for a good autobody shop in Edmonton or Calgary that you would trust your Z with.
I need to take my Z in at the beginning of the season to get my rear fender's rolled. Just need a tiny bit of clearance for my gargantuan rear wheels (10" wide wheel, 285 mm wide tire).
Thanks in advance. |

| Hmm... I wonder if your extra tire width (285 vs. 275) makes the difference. I run 275/35-18 on an 18x10 wheel on the rear and haven't had a problem... so far. |

It's probably the offset (which I am still not sure what it is). If I go over a hard bump, I can hear it just touching.
I guess i could just get one of these Fender Rollers
Or the infamous tt.net method |

| are you sure it's hitting the fenders or the fender liner inside? |

| What fender liner (rear)? |

I believe that Reflections Autobody does. I inquired when I bought my Q45 but in the end I didn't need to roll the fenders.

Good point. I am pretty sure it is just slightly touching the fenders. But, I will double check once winter is over and I put the wheels back on. |

Thanks Rad. I'll give them a shout once the car is out of storage. BTW, did they give you an estimate of how much? |

Yeah, it's just the rear wheels that would need to have the fenders rolled. I think there is a lining at the top. Can't recall though. |

I don't recall a liner in the rear fenderwell. (Just a plastic cover in-board for the fuel filler line on the driverside).
If your rear tires were rubbing anywhere it'd most likely be on the edge/lip of the fender itself, which is metal.
(edit* sorry, that was Captain Obvious speaking again, and you knew this already since you're asking about fender rolling in the first place). |

I think they quoted me $100 per side. They don't guarente that the paint won't crack. They will try the're hardest to make sure it doesn't.
