and they werent scraping? but urs is wagon is there a difference?

I have my guards rolled with 235/45's, still scrubs around the outer edge of the tyre, really annoying, leaves a nasty mark.

225/45/18's on the tyres ppl, wont rub at all.... thats what i had, and it was also lowered with and adjustable panhard rod.

Anyone know where you can get your guards lipped in melbourne using that nylon wheel-equipped guard rolling do-hickey??? need to know a.s.a.p. thanks!

Lads it doesn't matter if you lip the rear guards on some wheels.... if your wheels aren't the right offset you're fighting a loosing battle... having said that it depends on how bad the offset is.. .ie if the tyre is already sitting near level or even outside the guard new wheels will be required to fix scrapage

Thats right cos if you get HSV - 17,18,19's with 235's on em they will fit without scrubbing cos offset is awesome.... Fr18's etc are adjustable when you buy them...

my friggen walkies (16's) scrub cos the car is dumped, and lips arent rolled yet.... 225's on em

where the clip is on the rears mine were hiting, i lipped the metal right round 2 the bottom nearly, and cut maybe 2cm off the whole inside of the guards and cut the tab off those little parts at the top that were rubbin n just glued them on. worked great i can get pics if ne1 wants them.

and i have csa prowlers on mine with 235s, they hang out way 2 wide. lookin into new wheels soon as i can get some $$$

gets some pics up andy vlct. please as i think im having the same problem.

i got 17 by 8's, with 235's lowered king spring lows, dont rub scrub or nufin, only on big bumps which is hardly ever

hi guys i have a set of vy ss mags to put on my calais they are 17's with 235's i have the standard fe2 springs but was looking at getting some super lows will i be ok or will i need to lip my guards will it depend on weather i get the car lowered thanks

I have 245/35ZR19 ST-115 Falkens on my 19s with an adjustable panhard rod and guards rolled and theres no scrubbing...but its not super low

The easiest way I found to roll the guards front and rear is to get a decent sized metal pole, about 3-4 inches in diameter. Get someone in the drivers seat and go forward and back with the pole jammed under the guard and "roll" the pole back n forth until desired rolling is done. If the car is too high, have a mate sit on the front or rear and do the above. I have done my VL and an old HJ that way and came out brilliant as the pole rolls and doesnt destroy the paint. Some care needs to be taken! Go easy and it will work great

BEWARE PASSENGERS.

how much would it cost for someone to roll my guards?

Yeah I got 17" R8 mags and it used to scrub so hard! Had to put bigger springs in and yeah I MAY have got away with it if I had an adjustable panhard rod. so much better its not scrubbing now!!!

walkies suck for guard rubbing, my 235's are better on my 18x8's than the 225's were on the walkies.

I have bsa 18's with 235's , lowered, only had to lip the front guards, doesn't scrap at the rear.

is it really that easy to do it???
