Yeh its not very much, less then an inch id say.

If you need to space the wheels out to stop rubbing (im guessing because your cars slammed Wink ) be careful that the edge of the tyres dont stick out from the arches (mot failure).

A quick and easy way to increase your arch length by about an inch is to fit arch extensions. Worked for me. Wink

Please Dont take any of my posts as written fact. They are simply my opinion and although to the best of my knowledge true, the information within them may well be incorrect.

Any work you undertake as a result of my posts is done so at your own risk Smile
