Lipped or Rolled?

[VL Berlina 5speed]

whats peoples opinions on lipped or rolled guards?
whats Pros and cons of each.

im getting 18s in 8 days and i was going to ethier lipp my guards my self or take them to get rolled somewhere and was just wondering opinons.

[GoogieMan]

dude its personal prefferance.

if it were me id go Rolled edges (non Cut)
because they will be stronger - less proned to Buckel (or get wavey edges)

Lipped (or cut guards) are weaker becase they have no support

thats my 2 cents

[dmitch]

i vote rolled... but up 2 u

[VS Omega]

Another vote for rolled

[VP_commo_driver]

rolled ;-) looks nicer

[1991_Vn2nV]

Definitely rolled..

[VL Berlina 5speed]

yah was thinking rolled, but unsure on price, aint it ruffly 50 a corner?

[1991_Vn2nV]

I think closer to 70-80 a corner at tyre stores.

Cheaper if done elsewhere. Its not hard to do by yourself, but use a heat gun or something to prevent the paint cracking

[CHEETR]

my mate runs one of the tyre factorys, he'll do it for $35 a corner pm if your in need bud

anyone who needs rims or guard rolling throw me a pm

rolled sean cos we all know ur a hoon and if u get them lipped and someone gives u a guard lift it might **** it up LOL

[calais_304]

cheers all

i did my old car with a hammer... cost me nothing but the paint was already ###ed so i didnt care. if u have nice paint and straight gaurds i would advise against it.

oh and rolled is the lip is folded up and the other one is where the lip is cut off and grounded smooth

rolled is done with a machine that is placed on the hub, it rolls the guards up
evenly
lipped with a hammer and dolly as explained of before

i never have heard the idea of cutting and sanding smooth, which is bad as the lip/curve is there to give strutual strength to the panel and removing it makes it weaker, so it is dangerous

does anyone have pics of before & after using tha rolled method???
