Default SSC's - do you need to roll the fenders?

I always associated rolling your fenders with wider rims/tires, but when I mentioned to the local aligment shop that I was planning on lowering springs, they said not to forget to roll the fenders...

If I'm keeping the stock rims do I need to roll them or not??

Thanks,
Mark

I run SSC's on my buick regal, with a 255 and 38mm offset wheels i had to roll the rear fenders. With a 245 on the same wheel they were fine, stockers you'll be fine.

No need to roll, even with larger diameter aftermarket wheels:
