I usually use a pry bar because I'm working alone.  PM me about the summer meet.  I'll be creating a new thread for it in a little bit.

I don't have an issue pulling the rear struts out anymore after I had the fenders rolled.  Before they would always catch on the lip.

Did you roll them yourself or have someone do it? I looked into Eastwood's fender roller but it'll set me back close to $200 for basically a one-time use. I'm about to drive out to Long Island, NY on Thursday & pick up some 09 EX-L V6 wheels Right now I'm running 20/25mm spacers to flush out the 17x6.5 +55 07 EX-L V6 wheels; I know the 18x8 +55 will give me a 19mm increase on both sides (basically like running 20mm spacers all around to what I have now) but I don't think it'll completely flush them. I'll have to see. If I do use spacers in the rear, I'm gonna have to roll my fenders

I had a friend roll them with a PVC pipe while I did the driving.  We invested in an Eastwood when we rolled his 2011 WRX fenders.  I could look into shipping it to you if you want to borrow it.

Yea if it wouldn't be too much that'd be very helpful! Thanks Smiley

Did you just have to roll or rears or the fronts too?
