anyone running 17x10's without rolled fenders or over fenders?
I have 17x10 +12 FN's waiting to go on my car...just wondering if they will rub horribly until I can get my fenders rolled....anyone done this? can i adjust the camber setting on my coilovers to help at all...I just wanna get them on since I have to wait about a week to get my fenders rolled.....or should I just wait

You will rub, no buts or ifs about it. Screw adjusting the camber setting, just raise the car up till you can get it rolled, or better yet, dont put them on till you do. Also, what size tires you planning on slapping on those?

baseball bat temporarily or take a hammer to it, regardless you're gonna want to hammer it in to make the roll easier

I'm thinkin' a pull will be required... Doubt a roll will be enough.

Yup, youll need a pull with those tires. If you dont have a roller, just do it by hand. Bust out a rubber mallet and a hammer. Hammer inside the fender and rubber mallet against the outside to make the roll flat. Once its flat, start tapping the inside direction dead center of the hub and work your way out. Put the wheels on and see how much you need.

Or rent a fender roller(mine!!!) to do it quick and easy...and right.

You won't need to pull your fenders running that setup on an S14. I run 18x10.5 +15s with 265/35/18s in the rear and 1.5 degrees of camber with just a good fender roll... Stiff Gab Revostroke 2s (8/6) and tanabe swaybars are all I have suspension wise.
