I got some 17x8 +35 and 17x9 +20 5zigen FN01RCs running 235/45-17 and 255/40-17. I know my offsets are a little off, but I'm running 4 lug. I just did a bit of a test fit today on the stock suspension, but I will be running KTS coilovers and 300zx front brakes soon.

The rear fender needs to come out about 1.5-1.75 inches, and the front will need to come out about the same after I get the 15mm spacers necessary to clear the brakes and coilovers.

I need help with my fenders. I've never rolled a fender before, but 1.75" or so seems like a lot to roll/pull. Are there some fender flares I could/should use or should I consider getting some overfenders or something? Or will rolling/pulling the stock fenders that much not really be all that hard?

Thanks in advance!

well thats quite a pull and im assuming u have a s13 so if u pull that much in the rear, the quarter panel will sink in. (happened to me) so ur best bet is to get fender flares. Theres plenty of different flares out there like LNR and jspec ones. i recommend the zg 280z ones :D

I'll search around a little later, but do you know off the top of your head where I may be able to find some decent looking flares?

Thanks for your help...
