Isn't it easier/cheaper to get narrower wings?

Sell the escort axle for pornographic money and buy a Capri axle for £3.50, jobs a good un!
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

can you not just trim the arches to fit? You can cut grp quite neatly with a cutting wheel on a grinder, and if needed press on some rubber finishing
strip on the cut edge that will abut the car body

Four replies and not one answer to the actual question. Yes, wider wheels are available, I'd go for some nice Revolution 8" rims.
DO NOT PUT ON KNOB OR BOLLOCKS!
