Rolling my fender

Hey guys, I'm new to the forums. Just recently got my new 2004 rx8.

The car is very low to the ground and my fenders are eating away my tires every time I make a turn.

So I Was wondering if anyone is in the Houston area (TX) that would be willing to roll my front fenders for me .

Msg me or post a reply.

Thx

How is your car lowered? What size wheels/tires? A roll might not help.

Sorry for the late reply, but they are 225/45/18 and my car is lowered from the front by like .5/1 inch and are stock in the back.

That doesn't answer much. Wheel size? You shouldn't have any trouble with rubbing or needing a fender roll with stock size tires and stock size wheels if you're lowered an inch.

Just off the top of my head, it sounds like your bump stops may be missing.

You should be fine with that OEM tire size lowered an inch or even two.

Blown shocks are a possibility for sure. We have little to no info though
