yeah, most rear fenders there is piece of metal that can be "rolled" upwards so you can get clearance for wider rims and tires. Feel your rear fenders for yourself. In the picture, you can see the inner lip that has not been rolled yet on the left side of the "fender roller tool thing". The guy is working the tool from right, up and over, to left. Gives you about 1/2 inch clearance. hope that helps

From what I got from Dan explaining it to me, I think that's it. I don't think fender rolling "rolls" the entire fender but just the top portion that has the potential to contact the wheel. So from the picture, I don't think much more of the fender is going to get "rolled." Correct me if I'm wrong guys.

Pretty much you can just roll the part of the lip that makes contact with the tires.

or, do it yourself and roll the whole thing. old clip. but rolling the part that contacts with the tires makes sense, less work. but id figured it look weird.
