Im looking for fender flares for my 1993 wagon for the purpose of putting wider tires/offset rims on for off road purposes.

The tires I want will stick out on the sides thus the needed flares.

Anyone know of any flares that will fit onto a legacy wagon really nice or what the closest you can get is ?

A few board members have rolled their factory fenders out either using a fender rolling tool or a baseball bat.

does anybody have any pics of this

with in the next three months ill show you how to fit 17x10s....

I found this picture awhile ago:



I plan on doing something similar. A little baseball bat rolling let me put on 225s.

me no likly

You shouldn't be able to see rolled fenders.

rolled fenders are not nearly aggressive as fender flares say found on 240s and hochi's. im looking for a set as well for the wagon.

Sheet metal. Cut out the small flares there and replace them with wider ones, 22B-style.

I rolled/pulled my fenders with a roller a few weeks ago. I went from barely clearing 225s to definitely having room for 235s. There's like a 1/2" gap between the liner and the lip now.

And no it doesn't look like that wagon.

pics please

+1 pics would be nice

was the tool like this? Wherehow did you procure it?


The interwebz tell me that these are not cheap. I know some larger chain stores will lend some tools like spring compressors. Maybe only body shops have rollers?

yes that's what I used. It's easy and that tool works really well. We did a group fender rolling and install day thing. It's generally something like $50 for a week rental and there's a $250 deposit. I just pitched in $10 for the rental. Performance wheel and tire shops sometimes have them.

You can't really tell the fenders are rolled unless you look closely. But they are rolled and pulled out over 1/2" on all four corners.

I'd say it's most noticeable at the back of the front fenders because you can see them angle outward from the door.

I'll try to get some decent pictures tomorrow. The ones I took with my cell-phone don't show anything.

How about using a set of black, rubber/urethane flares from, let's say a Nissan pickup, and bolt them on? The'll give a clean finished look and hide all sorts of rust spots underneath. Thoughts?

this is funny cause last night i was thinking about if i had the money i would make fiberglass and carbon fiber fenders and also make widebody fenders and things like that but i have not won the lottery yet.

you would have to get creative with the flares when you put them on the back wheels because of the door being so close to the wheel arch.

if the purpose was to fit really wide tires for a track car i would think it would look pretty good. function over form and all that.
