Ferrari VR6 0 Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 What exactly is arch rolling?I've heard it talked about all the time but what does it actually do to the arches?If anyone wants to expand and tell me what pulling and flaring does aswell that would be great Cheers,Dave.

binliner 0 Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 If you feel along the underside of the arch there's a metal lip about 15mm wide... arch rolling is folding that lip up so the tyres dont catch on it when the cars low Link to post Share on other sites
MarkGolf 6 Posted March 22, 2005 Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Pulling and flaring is when the archs have slits cut into them and are physically pulled out then welded and fillered to give a wider fat boy look..Rolling is as justin said.. Link to post Share on other sites

MonkeyJug 0 Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 i would seriously advise against ever getting the arches rolled. i got mine done at style dynamix, and i didn't fully appreciate the repercussions!6 months down the line, i had to take it to a body shop (just last month actually) and it cost me Link to post Share on other sites
binliner 0 Posted August 7, 2005 Report Share Posted August 7, 2005 better advice would be never, EVER cut corners... get them done at a body shop and have the wings painted and you'll be fine Link to post Share on other sites

jaysVR6 2 Posted August 14, 2005 Report Share Posted August 14, 2005 I had my rears done about a month ago and they are perfect. If you're gonna get them done as Justins says, you must have them painted as old paintwork will crack under the stress of rolling.The guy that does all my body work has done many show cars that have been in Golf+ and alot of tuning companies cars, one problem though, he's all the way up here in Leeds sorry dude. Unless you wanna travel P.S He is very reasonable price wise. Link to post Share on other sites
