WIDE ARCH KIT

[BIG G GTE]

HI PPL NEW TO THE SITE JUST WONDERIN IF THE WIDE ARCH KIT WOULD FIT ON MY MK1 GTE AND DO YOU REAKON IT WOULD LOOK OK

[Jim]

Yes it will fit, and yes it will look ok. You will need to do some tweaking with it, as it probably wont line up properly.

THIS IS LOOKIN A BIT TOO EXPENSIVE WOULD 10 MM DO IT ????

wheel spacers are only a balls of a job. you will spend a small fortune on wheels bearings!!
as jim said its not easy to get the kit right as they come rough as they are orginally for rally cars.
Mine came from www.pro-tecmotorsport.co.uk
Go back through the styling forum as this question comes up evry few weeks and everything is explained

If you don't want wheel spacers, i have a set of newly sparyed allycats there 8" wide and have a massive dish so they sit well out to meet wide arches. They're very retro rally looking a real treat with low suspension.
