Purpline 0 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 Has anyone had their wheel arches pulled/widened/flared? I want to put 9 X 16's with 10mm spacers all round. I've seen plenty that have done it and I love the look. What's involved exactly and how much? Anywhere in the North that does it?(I've tried the wheels for size and they stick out about an inch) Link to post Share on other sites
vrPat 0 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 You could try Impact in Brighousewww.impactrepaircentre.com or 01484 381111 I need my arches rolling so I might be having a wander down there soon Link to post Share on other sites
binliner 0 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 Could be wrong but dont they pull the lip out to extend the arch? although that wouldnt cover an inch... if you had stretched tyres as well you might just do it. Link to post Share on other sites
Purpline 0 Posted February 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 The tyres are stretched, m8. I'm over-estimating with the inch just to be on the safe side - Impact looks promising - I wondered where they were based. Thanks guys. Link to post Share on other sites
Purpline 0 Posted February 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 Jeezus - just phoned Impact and to fit those wheels on I would need to weld new arches on to the old ones and it will cost £1800. New ideas needed! Link to post Share on other sites
vrPat 0 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 sh*te I knew they weren't cheap but I didn't think it'd need that, I saw K9ANY's motor at a meet a couple of months back and he had very wide CR7 rims on it, with arches rolled at Style Dynamix but they are down south Did you ask Impact how much just to roll the arch lips?

Purpline 0 Posted February 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 No - might just do that and get smaller dishes. Shouldn't be too bad. Link to post Share on other sites
binliner 0 Posted February 18, 2004 Report Share Posted February 18, 2004 arch rolling is normally about £40 a corner pat Link to post Share on other sites
