Is it possible to pull fenders with an eastwood roller?

Hey guys,

I'm looking at some fairly serious wheels for my HG50 (17x9 front, 17x10 rear +20 offset) and I am obviously going to have to roll the fenders, but I was thinking that it may make sense to pull the fenders as well, and add a little bit of a flare to the fenders to fit the wheels.

Can I do that with an eastwood roller? Also, does anybody out there with a g50 q45 (or maybe even another president!) who has any ideas about the fitment of these wheels? They've got a nice 2" lip in front and 3" in rear, and I think they'd look totally bomb on my prez but I want to make sure about fitment first!

I'm running 19x9 et 32 (225/35/19) 19x10 et 28 (235/35/19) on my G50 President with no roll or pull. Your fronts will fit no problem and the rears might need a slight roll.

17's look pretty small on the President imo. What tire sizes do you plan on running?

Hope that helps.

Never did I think that i'd get advice from somebody else with a prez, let alone another canadian!!

I was going to run something in the neighbourhood of 225/35/17 up front and 250/35/17 in the rear. Not a super crazy stretch but I think it'll fit well. Can you upload pics of your president? I'd really like to see what 19's look like on them, but I was thinking with a smaller wheel i could tuck way harder and sit lower.
