I fitted a set of sportspack replica archs from mini spares to my mini a few months ago. Today i finally got a set of 13 x 7 superlites and on fitting them i have discovered a major problem. The back is fine but the front ones are getting caught on the arch. I can only turn the wheel about half a turn before they get caught in the sportspack arch. The wheel isnt centre in the arch either.I have hi los and i tried adjusting up the height but this still doesnt clear the arch. Also, i have fitted new suspension cones and knuckle joints so these are not the problem either, Could anyone help with this.

Did you trim your wings? you have to cut some of the metal away before you put your arches on

have you had the tracking reset since you altered the ride height ?

have you fitted a sports pack rack or fitted lock stops to the rack ?

Ya i trimmed the wings. They are not the problem do. I cant even get the wheel in under the sportspack arch.They are getting caught in the front of the arch.

No i havnt had the tracking done yet bungle but if the tracking was out the wheel should still tuck in under the arch shouldnt it. No i have no limiters fitted. I did get a set of KAD limiters but after putting one on, it was very loose on the rack so had to take them off again.
