How are you guys fitting 275 and 295 in the rear... I've been trying to figure out how to get a larger width in the rear but I'll rub ... Went to body shops and none say they will roll more or cut and pull without potential issues..

With the right offset and slightly rolled fenders, it's not difficult. My fenders are pulled maybe 5mm and I still have room for a bigger tire. I've measured and I could run a 305 but it would rub slightly. There is no more clearance on the inside, my KW shock body is slightly flattened as there is only a few mm of clearance.

275 is easy bro, just get the right offsets, going to try 295 but it may make it too tall. Yes at times the 20's look to big and then at times the 19' s look so small. Am debating between getting a new set but one of them only comes in 19 which is the sdc f14 . |

By pulled do you mean the shop heated up he fender and did a nice job of pulling the fender with no paint issues? Or do you mean they rolled the fenders to the max.. Any chance some one has a pic of there roles fenders as mine are apparently rolled but I don't feel like they are

Very hard to roll the rear fenders due to the thickness and especially if you want to maintain the flat portion. Had mine rolled and cut and still rub.

I did it with a fender roller. Basically started rolling, it still rubbed so I just kept going. If you look at the pic I had posted, you can see that my quarter panel is no longer flat there. It's not aggressively pulled like the stance guys, but it's pulled. That pic was before I had installed a spacer so you can see how much room is left for a bigger tire.
You really can't roll that much and keep the fenders flat. So if you really want them to remain flat, you have to cut them. I only managed to roll a few mm while keeping the fender flat. It wasn't enough so I decided to keep going. I don't think I could pull much more without cutting. It's hard to see, but there is a slight flare/lip at the edge due to the metal being pushed out from the inner liner. On our cars, it's not really possible to roll a fender "flat" like you see on some other cars. It's either cut or pull. Use a heat gun of course and your paint should be fine. And I run 295/25 tires. If I ran a 30 series sidewall, it would rub non stop and be too tall anyways. Quote:
