just worked out how much stretch i can get on these wheels and it still be safe so once everythings confirmed i'll be looking at new rubber for these rims

Is it close to the metal arch lip?
#143: Re: Teebag's 5door hdi fmic new plans... going euro... Author: Teebag, Location: exhall, bedworth, coventryPosted: Sun Nov 14, 2010 4:58 pm ---- can get a finger between the arch lip and the tyre. want to drop the rear down so the arch sits roughly on top of the rim on tues if your up for it ben? just need to loose the arch liner for the bumper i think.
#144: Re: Teebag's 5door hdi fmic new plans... going euro... Author: NorthantsBen, Location: Raunds, NorthamptonshirePosted: Sun Nov 14, 2010 5:03 pm ---- Lovley and tight then lol, thats the liner i had to remove with a full load,
