the inner fender (metal part of the body, not the plastic) had to be cut in order to make a 19x9.5 wheel fit with lowering. Rolling fenders is an old skool term. People used to take a baseball bat, tuck it right under the fender, have some fat friends sit in the trunk and carefully roll the bat around the inner fender. Nowadays people just get them cut. Hence the term, fender rolling.
