Fit rear arches?

I wanna fit my rear arches, but I dont have my correct wheels yet. I only got the standard 13" Sierra whhels now.
But it should be possible to fit them anyway!?

Do I align the bottompart of the arches to the bottom part of the side of the Indy?
Then just center the arches over the wheel?

The gap beetween the tire and the arches should be the same around the wheel. Then it shouldnt matter that i step up to 15" wheels later

Im I correct?



thanks in advance





Hope you can read and understand my english

Sounds good to me, here is a pic of my rear car where you can see the rear arch.

Cheers

you should be able to fit them howeverr you may at some stage need to go back and trim part of the arch off as the tyres can rub. Its easier to fit the arch higher this will allow the body clearance to be kept to a minimum. The brother in laws indy catches the arches when dropped below 5 1/4 inches hes had to use heavier springs to counter this. which in turn has its own disadvantages
