I got them for the look. I don't care about tire wear. Also it helps a little bit with fitting my wheel which is an 18 x 9.5 in the rear. Still rubs though with fender rolling.
theres multiple fender rollers. lol. the one i have which is'nt mine is like 400 i believe. but they go up to 1 grand for the top of the line and as cheap as like 100

One...first had fenders cut at a body shop...then since our caster sucks and they didnt cut all the way down he rolled it with a bat (no heat) messed up the inside of the fender end result fender repainted and fender completely flat
Two...cut fenders and left it alone at that.
Third...Got a professional fender roller and used heat but still messed up his paint (having fenders repainted now).
heat the paint so it doesn't crack and with xb's, there is seam sealer in the rear so it will peel off since it's being heated. don't be alarmed, just reseal it after.
as for fender roller, here's a link to one...

Thanks fellas, I appreciate it. I was thinking of having them rolled at a shop if it will be about the same price, and that way if they screw it up, it's their baby.
