Eastwood makes a couple fender rollers ,which one are you talking about?

Also my problem is i have chrome lips on the fenders..If i roll the fender with then off , how will i bend them back to the lip they screw into? Thats the issue im having as of now .....

Almost tempted to go with the 255/60/15 tires just to be safe . but i plan on being in the ball park of 450+HP/480Trq
plus adding a 150/200 shot of NOS ...
 
A 255/60-15 will work. There is a local guy around here with a Datsun 240, 496 BBC, 150 shot NOS, he put down 618 hp to the rear wheels last year on the dyno and that is the size tire he is running. There are some guys out there putting up some good numbers at the track on a 235/60 drag radial.
X2 on taking your time with the fender roller. I am going to roll my lips first with out the wheel trim on and then just tape the trim in place and then roll them to the same shape. Will have to use a shorter screw so you don't end up with poke marks in your 1/4's.
