I wouldnt let him touch them!! If hes asking you how to do it, surely thats not a good sign. I think u need a special tool to do it properly without cracking the paint.

to do it properly he needs the proper device! lol. It bolts to the hub, with a long arm that touches the arch, you "roll" the arch by adjusting the tension of the tool and then moving it side by side. You have to gradually increase the tension otherwise it may crack the arch.

He has got a machine to do it now ...he has done it before in other ways.
Thanks guys. I've reiterated to him how, and then he was ok. He thought I wanted something else mad done!
