anyone know how to roll and pull a fender or have a fender roller. i put coilovers on my golf and now the right rear tire is rubbing. i already popped a tire cuz i didnt realize it was rubbing that bad. i have the car parked now and really want to start driving it again. its only rubbing on the one side which has me baffled as to y but i would really like to get this done soon.

this may be obvious but have you done a proper alignment? if not, check ride height, camber, and toe?
are the coilovers new?
has the car ever been in an accident?
how many miles on the car?

the above is just a start of a differential diagnosis....

for fender roller, if you cannot find one locally, there are lots of places, like purems, that lend them out with a deposit and charge.

harbor freights has them cheap

or you can get a heat gun/blow dryer and a hammer with a round tip, put some electrical tape around it and take your time tapping in the fenders.

the reason the fender rubs is because the prior swiped something with the rear fender so its indented a lil and now rubbing the tire since i lowered it. so i just need the roll the fender smooth so i get rid of the issue but i found someone who is gonna do it
