I know that they have been rolled from factory, but has anyone flared or rolled them even more

Mine have been pulled 15mm approx each side. Only due to the wheels I was running at the time

Who did you get to do it? & what wheels was you running?

Beenham bodyshop in Berkshire. I had 3SDMs at the time, so needed all 4 pulled when I was on air ride. Thankfully I have got rid of both now  :laugh:

how much did it cost?
Do you lose the arch liners once the arches have been pulled?

I couldn't really say how much as I get it cheap, but also I had shed loads of other work done at the same time. The arch liner is still in place but obviously you get a gap where the arch is now pulled out.

Look at Archenemy.co.uk online they can come to you and do it, depending on location. Think it's around £170 for all 4 arches iirc.
