Rollin d' front guards.


Recommended Posts

Howdy peeps...just wondering if anyone has rolled their front guards out more to fit 18's or 17's with a 215/45 profile etc with a lower drop (i.e I'll be sitting 100mm off the ground)?

Is it possible to do this and avoid any scrubbing? I may be going 18's later on...maybe. More likey 17's though.

Cheers guys and gals!

tyres usually scrub on the plastic guard liner, not the actual guard itself.

You can modify the liner, there isn't a lot of metal to roll at the edge of the front guards.

a few different ways. You can either cut holes and let the guards fill up with crap and get the loom wet (same is achieved by removing the liner), or you can get creative with plastic welding and box them for more clearance, or do the same with fibreglass.

Plastic welding sounds good lol ;)

Thanks Jason!
