Hi guys,
I have just gone to 15x8 with 0 offset and need my guards rolled.
I have seen tutorials on how to do it. I'd like to hear from people who have tried this. Is it a pain in the arse?
Looks straight forward. What are your thoughts?
If you recommend getting it done professionally, it would be great if you could suggest any body places you'd recommend.
Thanks for reading,
Pap11y

Easy to do badly. I have seen it done with a baseball bat and a few big guys sitting on the bonnet/boot. I do not recommend this method personally.
I bought my own guard rolling tool and used a heat gun to soften the paint so it didn't chip. Worked great but I was very careful and took my time. I was also having my car painted in a few weeks so even if something went wrong (which it didn't), I didn't really care.
If you want a pro to do it, touch base with Network Auto Paint & Panel in Greenacre. They do nice work and the cost isn't ridiculous.
