rolling is got to do with clearance, the fact is, if you want to run a desired offset with fat tyres with lowered height, you either need to roll or not.

It's not about choosing not roll the guards....

I would say that car i posted on jdmst is rolled.

i've thought about it.

for the time being it won't be rolled because the rubbers will be stretched, but when i put on the fat rubbers, that's when they'll need to be

not sure mate.. these have left a dent in my wallet.. i'll be running my old 205/45 on these until they are completely shot, then i'll start looking for something decent..

maybe 215/45 or 225/45.. don't want too much of a thick profile.. but moreover, bulging :mrgreen:
