the arches are cathing the rear tyre on the drivers side and the guy who done the car has trimmed them but don't think he wants to trim them any more i know i have big tyres on it just now 165/60 i thing for 14" tsw wheels .so problem is i want to get 16" spyders on her car but is this going to buff to is there any thing else that can be done?

if the arches are done properly the arch lip should be folded back up against the panel and be completely flush

your wheels are prolly a really bad offset like ET35

have a look on the back of the rim - it should be stamped on it

u should be able to get ET45-49 wheels on fine upto 16" with a minimum of arch mods

probably moving onto styling forum now. Do it yourself, angle grinder, pliers and filler. DONT grind past double skin.
