binliner 0 Posted January 2, 2004 Report Share Posted January 2, 2004 I was going to say the same... they can do your arches for you as well if you need it Link to post Share on other sites
Mangold 0 Posted January 2, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2004 Thanks chaps, unfortunately I already knew about those guys. Hopefully wont need any arch mods as I'm prob only going to go from 7x17 to 7.5x17 and stick with the 205/40/17 tyres. What you recon? Link to post Share on other sites
speedo 0 Posted January 2, 2004 Report Share Posted January 2, 2004 I`m running 7.5 x 17, with 215 / 40 17,. Had to modify (slightly) the rear arch, as it rubbed with 4 peeps in her....looks lurvly though Link to post Share on other sites
binliner 0 Posted January 2, 2004 Report Share Posted January 2, 2004 depends on your offset and how low you go as well... I had to have my front arches done and Im running 7x17 with about -60mm Link to post Share on other sites
Mangold 0 Posted January 3, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2004 I'm running on a 60mm drop at the moment, won't be going any lower. Like I say thats with 7x17's and I have no problems with rubbing etc. Will prob stick to the same tyre size if I go to 7.5x17. Link to post Share on other sites

BenW16 0 Posted January 4, 2004 Report Share Posted January 4, 2004 Try ebay gez, May b useless but give it a go! Link to post Share on other sites
AndyW 0 Posted January 4, 2004 Report Share Posted January 4, 2004 Not sure where abouts in the S/E you are based. I can recommend Surbiton Tyre and Wheel. They are based just off the A3 near Kingston. If that's too far away, give them a call and ask for Simon, he 'may' be able to recommend one closer to you. tel - 020 8397 4046 :!

Mangold 0 Posted January 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 5, 2004 VR6Steve, that link isn't right for the car place??? Forgot about Elite though, have used them before in the past.BenW16, always checking ebay mate for the odd bargain!AndyW, I'm only in Walton so that sounds good for me. What Road is it on?
