Arch rolling near to Harrow/Watford?
May need to get my arches rolled tommorow, thats if my wheels get delivered tmrw at last & Mags gets the tyres in & if the tyres actually rub!! 
Going to try & get 225/45/17 tyres on a 8J / 48 offset rim on std classic sti suspension
So anyone know a good place close by who can roll the rear arches on the day?

Hi Ricky. One of the guys on the RB5 forum used a company called archenemy.co.uk. and they done a really good job (although they do ask u to sign a waver first). I don't know where they are based but they are mobile.

Like I said Ricky, it is easy with a lump hammer
, and heat gun to soften the paint will stop it cracking in most cases
- I also have a set of panel beaters hammers if you want me to be careful
PS - can I get a lift on Sunday

If there's enough people need it doing this could be an option

Just spotted this one Jon, good find. Could be a good idea if anyone's feeling brave/skilled? £10 for heat gun too.

I have a heat gun so don't need that - if people are willing to take the chance I'll be up for doing it - if I ever get a moment
I rolled the arches on my cavalier myself with a set of panel beaters hammers and had a 1" crack on 1 arch and that was without heat - I did all 4 on the cav

Not needed as 3 wheels arrived today, the 4th is somewhere in the Interlink twilight zone 
This was after 2 previous failed pick ups, the first saying they are too heavy packed in pairs & then rebooking individually & them saying booking still shows pairs not 4 packages. This was by DHL.
So then rebooked with Interlink who end up losing one!!!AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Will wait & see if it turns up tmrw?
ps also last week my Opie Oils delivery was lost by Fedex & after 8 days I got them ship out new consignment!! This meant could nt get the car serviced, worked on & mapped this week either.
