| my wheels are like at least an inch awayfrom the fender to flush... meaning i need like 20mm spacers but i think i'll settle for 15mm just to be safe... |

| rolling fenders means pushing them out a bit. if you look at the fender it has a lip on the inside and roling them flods that up and pushs the fender out a bit giving your tire a bit more room in the fender well. |
