plumber60 Posted June 8, 2004 Share Posted June 8, 2004 I can get rid of my arch lip completly, but am very limited with pushing the whole arch out as the bond between the fibreglass arches and metal may split Be brave and rip it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would I'm looking at some 7.5 x 19s (225/35 tyres) ..... and I think they will just fit as the wheels are 0.5 inch narrower than Sime's Kahn's and I'll go for a tiny offset, space them out so they are as near to the inside of the arch as possible. If I've done all I can and they still rub, I'll get some 215 tyres instead. If it still rubs..... F**K! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can do all the archwork myself, took a couple of months but I've thought of a great way to secure the f/glass arches with no arch lip And I like tyres outside of the wheel Nowt to do with curb protection, just looks 'right' to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cyclones, they are riveted to the lip and bonded inside I'd love to know how cossie arches are secured if they aren't held up to the arch lip, they must weigh a bit!
