Hi all I'm changing for 13" to 10" my car has what I call standard arches. Width is perfect for my 10's I just don't like the arches I had a set of poor quality group 2 arches but when offered to the car the original mounting holes where still visible, what arches would cover these holes and who makes the best quality and fitting arches as the ones I had where terrible things.

Did you have sportspack arches?
Being 13's I suspected so...

[nicklouse]

if sport pack you will find the wings have been cut away (factory) which also makes the holes further up.

 

very few arches actually use the same holes if any.

No sorry they not sports back I should have said 13x6" wheels off set of inward the arches are what would have come on say an 86 city for example

Plastic special arches would fit the ' 'standard' holes but maybe if you post a picture of the wings with hole locations would help.
Most fibre arches will need a bit (or a lot) of fiddling to get right, some are worse than others.
Where Di you get your gp2's from?

Edit:
If you already had special arches, my brother had gp2 race arches from Minispares and fit right in the 'standard holes but they needed a little tweaking and a splash of paint.

I quite like the Wood and Picket arches are they are smooth and show no mounting holes and can be sprayed body colour. But they won't fit wings that have been cut away for 13 inch wheels though

Front wings are cut a little at front so it looks like group 2 arches, who in your opinion makes the best fitting group 2 arches?
