Had Peter been in Rome when Paul wrote the Epistle to the Romans, we can be sure that Paul would have addressed him in the introduction, as a courtesy. No matter how strained their relationship might have been, it would havebeen unwise for Paul not to have done so.
Furthermore, Clement of Rome (1 Clement, c 95 CE), wrote of the life and, in general terms, death of Peter but does not seem to have known that he was in Rome just four or five decades earlier.

When were the epistles or the books of Peter written?
Most Christian scholars consider 1Peter to have been written around 64 AD. Weiss puts it among the earliest writings of the New Testament. Hug, Neander, and Mayerhoff, have the opinion that the apostle alludes to the persecution of Christians under Nero, and say that it was written toward the close of the year 64, when that persecution was raging. Some scholars for example Alford suggest it was written about the year 63, before the Christian persecution broke out. An argument has also been made from the presence of Mark. It is generally thought that this is the same John Mark, who accompanied Paul on his first missionary journey. The authenticity of 2 Peter is hotly debated and the date of 2 Peter obviously hinges on its authenticity. Those who believe it is a forgery choose some date in the second century. Since Christians conclude that the church was correct in recognizing 2 Peter as canonical, a date between 64 and 67 AD - shortly before Peter's death - seems likely.
Where did Paul write the Epistles to Timothy?
The First Epistle to Timothy is traditionally thought to have been written by Paul from Laodicea. The Second Epistle to Timothy is traditionally thought to have been written by Paul from Rome. However, 1 Timothy and 2 Timothy, known (along with Titus) as the Pastorals because of their concern for the pastoral role of bishops in the second-century Church, are almost unanimously regarded by critical scholars as not written by Paul. We do not really know who wrote them, or from whence they were written.

The recipient of Paul's epistle to the Romans was the Christian community living in Rome, Italy.

It has also been suggested that the 16th chapter of Romans was not original to Romans but rather was appended to the copy of Romans that Paul sent to Ephesus. This hypothesis is supported by the fact that most if not all of the persons mentioned in Romans chapter 16 are persons known to have been connected with the church in Ephesus, but not with the church in Rome.
