![]() American Eagle alloys makes rims identical to the cobra r's. The size is 17x9" with +23mm offset and 5-7/8" backspacing. Do you guys think it will fit on my '85 thats been converted to 5-lug with SN95 stuff?

![]() I was thinking about getting bigger rims/tires, I've heard a bunch of people talk about rolling the fenders... what exactly is rolling the fenders? it is just pulling em out some so the tires fit?

![]() Yeah, basically all that you have to do is "fold" the inner fender lip up. It gives you more clearance for your tires and is realitively easy to do. Here is a site that shows the most famous, baseball bat method. (I know its an Acura Integra, but it shows how to do it.) Also, some people use a heat gun to heat it up so it rolls easier, Just make sure you take your time! You don't wanna go messin it up.
