weather you need arches or not will depend on your brakes

i have standard drum brakes on my 1975 leyland clubby... i just want to see pics of cars with 12x5 without flares.

Bungle's hit the nail on the head, with drum brakes the track of the mini is 2" (1 inch each side) less than a mini equiped with disks...

Many 12" wheels are designed for Disk braked mini's therefore have a different offset to those designed for drums which often means they will scrub and require spacers, and hence wont fit under the arches...

Basically what I'm saying is, it's a rare photo you're looking for...

The std 4.5J12 wheels with 145 tyres will fit under the arch on disk models, just... as shown below...
