legal wheels
Hi I have a friend with a triamph stag and he has bought a set of wolfrace wheels bother is as the stag body tapers to the rear they tend to stick out

Cheers Ali

Think you're right. Wheel/tyre has to be within the plan view of the body.

Just the tyre tread has to be covered
If you can keep you head, whilst all others around you are losing theirs, you are not fully aware of the situation

Ye just the tyre tread has to be covered, not the wheel which is how people get away with stretched tyres.

For C&U that is the case, but for IVA the wording is: 4. The wheel guard must cover the full breadth of the tyre throughout the required
dimensions

Now we must seek the definition of 'required dimension'

The required dims refer to the fore and aft extension of the arch, which is 30 degrees fwd and 50 rwd.
Its not an ambiguous rule.
