Just sayin....


A fender roller can be used to make your car Hellaflush, however my intended use of the tool is to allow for wider wheels and tires to be used. Not for a slammed, cambered out look but for actual track performance.

I know that 205/50/15 tires can rub on the rear fender lips sometimes. It was only my intention to provide a means of fixing that problem for most folks at a decent price. On at least 1 of my cars I plan on running a 225/45/15 tire on a 8 inch rim. Without rolling the fenders I am not sure how that would be possible.

I own 5 cars so it makes sense for me to just buy one and if I can help other people out so be it. I am the first one to admit it that I am a hater of Hellaflush. I also hate knockoff parts, and other things I feel don't move the automotive industry forward as a whole.

Driving on tires that are stretched are dangerous, so is mounting them

This.

I too am a hater of "hellaflush" style. I think its worse than being a ricer. Too dangerous and also the uneven tire wear.. Then the mpg loss, soo much stuff bad comes out of it lol
