Question on pulling fenders..

[rupertaker1]

I've searched and haven't found much more than ''heat them up and roll back and forth''

I know to cut the paint so it doesn't crack, and heat the outside and inside with a torch so it will stretch easier...but is there a certain angle to start at with the fender roller? Is it better to start at a 45 degree angle and then work my way out so its perpendicular to the ground? Like start at ''\" and work my way out to "|", or should I do vice versa? I've practiced on a few friends cars and have the basics down but I'm hopefully doing my car today and just wanted to iron out the details...wish me luck, I'm trying to shove 18x9-4 and 18x10-2 in under there without looking too mexican =)

yep, work at 45 degree angle first and work your way up to 90 degree..then once it flattens you just crank the ball joint out further and further which will push the fender out, then u just roll back and forth as normal
