hi everyone,

ive got a 91'h mkii fitted with BSA 187 17in rims, im not to sure if they are the correct offset, but have had the arches on the back rolled and jacked out slighly and the fronts have been flaired just about as much as theyll go without losing the shape of the wing and so they still look standard, its been lowered 60mm on the back with shocks and springs, itll only rub in extreme conditions which doesnt bother me, its happened about twice this year, hahaha, my main concern is the fronts lowered only 30mm with the arches flaired and rolled, they still rub.

does any 1 know of a supplier or the like who supply wider than standard wings, im not talking wide arch kit, just some heftier than standard 1s, ive seen somthing like it on a nova at a cruise but the lad who owned it brought it already done,


any help appreciated

im not sure about any manufacturers, but what about making ur own up? it would prolly work out cheaper if you make ur own out of steel (maybe?) and weld that in? just a thought..

Have it cut along the top of the 'crease/bulge', pulled out a little and a plate welded over the gap behind. Smooth and re-spray.

Simple.

Tho it's more likely than not, your wheels. How wide are they?
