here's a good quote
"
The “fender” is the area that houses the wheel and tire of a vehicle. There are several reasons why a vehicle may require fender rolling. After a vehicle’s suspension is
modified, i.e. with lowering springs/shocks, a vehicle’s height is significantly lowered, thereby closing the gap between the fender and tire. Also, installing larger-than-stock wheels and tires decreases the gap between the fender and tire. Thirdly, partially due to larger-than-stock tires, issues may arise with the rear tires lightly contacting the splashguards due to suspension squat under heavy acceleration. By executing any one
of the previous actions, a vehicle’s stance is lowered, thereby significantly closing the
gap between the fender, or wheel well and the tires. These actions may require fender rolling to alleviate any tire-to-fender contact.

hope that helps
