Hi,

Some of TMF followers have it seems had similar frustrating problems to me, and I do not seem to be able to do anything to solve them.


I decided to fit 13x7 Superlight deep dish style wheels fitted with Yoko 175x50x13.

Running gear as been changed to incorporate 1.5 degree fixed bottom arms and adjustable tie bars, the arches are non genuine sportspack (GRP) type.

The arches fit snuggly to bodywork and meet appropriate points i.e. bumper, ‘A’ frame seam and side flasher recess.

The metal wing has been cut to a template although the tyres are not touching any metal; the tyres touch the outer edge of the arch after the minimum amount of lock.

When viewed from side the wheels look forward to the vertical center axis, I have adjusted the tie bar but it does not seem to make any difference.

Can any TMF readers give some advice or course of action, I am nearing end of the project now this as happened. :shy:
