i am running a 285/30ZR20 tire on the rear of mine.
you would want to run a 285/30ZR19 tire on that 19x10 wheel!

when i rolled my rear fender lips, i used a rubber mallot, "BUT" you have to be very very careful or else you will disfigure the outer skin (what you can see from standing beside the car)
and before i started rolling the lip, i first used a razor blade to cut the paint inside the lip, so when i did roll the lips it wouldn't snap the paint off the outer (visible) part of the rear fender!!

how would i be able to go wider than a 285 series tire more like a 305 or 315

Bust out the hammer or saws all

hehehee...I've rolled fender lips and its about the best way...

would a body shop be able to do this for me and how much does it normally cost to get it done.

we had to do that on the pro streeter and although it wasnt painted at the time we turned the lip up a bit and then used a socket between the tire and the lip and rolled the tire until the socket got all the way across. at least thats how i remember it, i was only 8 at the time

nice wheels guys

I use small pipes....gradually getting igger each time. You can also use an aluminum bat or wooden bat.....

duckhead4life

how do you use the bat. do you just stick the bat between the wheel and the wheel well and pull up or what. and also does it do anything to the paint like make it flake off or anything

jy211

I use the handle part of the bat. Cut the inner wheel well with a razor balde. Then slide the handle side into the wheel well....slowly back the car up and hold the barrell end of the bat....let the car go back slowly until the bat goes all the way to the other side on top of the tire...now start over...make sure you mark the bat at the thickness part you used.....then next time stick the bat in a little further so it pushes the metal further in......

does that make sense?

yeah it makes since but will a razor blade really cut the inner well wheel of a car.

Its nice to see people opinions on 19 & 20" wheels changing. While I do agree it can look rediculous with the wrong wheel, 20's fill the wheelwell perfectly. I see Whistler's 20's all the time, now even 18's look small to me. I just wish 20's had a better tire selection. I am goin with 19's because you can get rear tires in any size, 295, 305, 325, 335, and the 345 monster (which will go on my Z).

the razor blade is to cut the paint....so when you roll the fender it does chip the paint....

duckhead4life

but wont rust eventually get up under the paint in the area that you cut and rust it out. and cant you tell where you cut it at

get some touch up clear coat. dab in. you can even dab in some color in the visible metal spots. there more professional ways, but with it being the underside lip not many people see. just clean in up nice. i love those aero rims. -n ick-
