Default Fender Roller?

Does anyone have a fender roller in the chicago area?


Just wondering because the rear on my teg needs to be rolled. Thanks.

Get a wooden bat, works just as good as those expensive rollers AND you can use the bat as a theft deterrent

Thats what I used

How exactly did you use a bat? lol...I guess you just heated the paint and started beating it out? Or did you gain leverage somehow to slowly push it out?

You shouldn't have to beat on your car with a baseball bat at any point. You just stick the bat between the tire and the fender and you can use the handle as a lever and roll it over the tire until you have the desired clearance.

I suppose that would work and is a pretty good last minute resort, but wouldn't you think it would not be as even as a fender roller thats mounted on the hub? To be honest I might be using your baseball bat idea lol, but am a little scared.

Haha thanks man. I played baseball all my life so I have a few laying around still that I think would be perfect. I won't know if I'll even need to roll till I get the tires, but I imagine 225's on a 15x7 +35 offset that I will at least need to roll the rear out a bit.
