Im putting 12 x 6" superlites on when i get some money. I just cant decide on arches, i want to go wider than standard but NOT sports pack as i dont like the holes for the bumpers (dont mention filling them up!!) i got some group 5 euro ones and the only thing i dont like about them is by offering them up the front one looks as tho it will come down the arch and sweep in under the indicator (if you know what i mean) and look cr*p.
Any ideas.

i take it you mean my works arches

the chrome trim does not come with the arches but the lip is on the arches

if you dont what the lip you could cut it off as they are only glass fiber

but it would be better to look for other arches

Do your arches not stick out about 1" more then your wheels though? Group 5's sound massive for 12" wheels?
