If you want to reduce paint damage heat them up before you roll them, might stop the paint cracking depending how much you roll them

He said without damage. Thats pretty risky with a scaffold bar.

If your doing it on an evo then I would at least borrow a proper roller, I have seen that you can make them out of a scissor jack and a few other parts.

i genuinlely laughed

id use a arch roller and heat gun, but i suck at it.

A mate told me yesterday that arch enemy won't touch evo's!

He then rolled the arches on a mates evo and said the rears were fine but the fronts were a nightmare. The car was mint and now the front arches are slightly deformed apparently! He said he now knows why arch enemy refused. Basically, take a lot of time doing them!!

I rolled my Soarers arches that had no rust/damage with heat and a proper roller, nice and slow... paint still cracked...

My soarer arches cracked too.used heat and took my time, must be down to thick paint and metal

Oh great I brought a roller was planning on having a go in the morning but I\d rather not crack the paint :S

If you want to fit the wheels and tyres you want,you just got to grow some balls and do it.Or try the phone book method

 

[Anth4130]

Yup, just have to man up if that's what you are wanting to do to your arches. It's a gamble I'm afraid...

Hammer & breaker bar. And at one stage some mole grips. Arches were flawless with mega clearance.

i used arch enemy to roll the arches on my old mr2, top bloke. No damage what so ever

 

[jdm_mug]

i did my arches with a tool i got off of ebay. It's not that hard to do if you just take your time and keep heat in it then you should be fine

I know it's very similar to a scaffold bar but try a wooden baseball bat... Little more subtle and harsh on them I guess but I don't know squat!
