bayside_supra Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Hey everyone Can anyone recommend a place for arch rolling that does a good job for reasonable money, preferably within 10 miles or so of North London... Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobUK Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Don't bother, just cut the arches..... I went down the roll root and quickly discovered its a waste of time.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Massey Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 If you're going to roll them Try arch enemy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayside_supra Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 Doesn't cutting them risk rust? Why is rolling a waste of time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobUK Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Just seal them when finished... Rolling can split the paint and they (arch enemy) disclaim the life out of the work.... If your considering rolling go check your arches for rust and/or filler.... If you have either then your best just cutting them, takes about 30mins and paint is unaffected Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobUK Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 Haha yeah I might just do it. Pretty handy on a grinder but knowing my luck id slip and cut a lovely groove in the wing lol Use the grinder like a sander and you'll be ok..... I used a DA mini sander (air tool) to start and then swapped to 4" grinder once it got to the welds.... Just took a bit off and then tested... Took about 7/8mm off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayside_supra Posted May 31, 2015 Author Share Posted May 31, 2015 Interesting. I'll test fit my new wheels before anything as they will hopefully be ok. Not sure I want to do rolling or cutting now lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobUK Posted May 31, 2015 Share Posted May 31, 2015 What wheels are you fitting? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayside_supra Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 HREs 19" and the rears are 11" wide. Apparently they do fit without modification needed but just thinking ahead Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobUK Posted June 1, 2015 Share Posted June 1, 2015 Really? 11" wide..... What tyre size? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayside_supra Posted June 1, 2015 Author Share Posted June 1, 2015 295/30 r 19!!! They came off a Supra and didn't rub so hopefully they will be ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bayside_supra Posted June 2, 2015 Author Share Posted June 2, 2015 After going to a wheel place they are not quite 11" wide they just have too big tyres on them. What's the best way to determine the best tyre size? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
