Wellse's Silver 6n2-sold

Featured Replies

how do you get the wheels in the arch so deep... are you cambering them, or is it a case of 7's x 15's and arch rolling? I'm having problems with mine now and the same gap from the arch the the tyre as it is on yours from the lip to the arch..

well there 7.5s all round, no spacers at the front, 15mm spacers at the rear. doesnt scrub at all. all arches have been rolled aout 3-4mm and I'm running a 165 tyre which gives more clearance on the inner lip.

so combination of wheel width, tyre size and arches lol

spacing the fronts out 5mm when the turbos go back on as i think theres to much tuck up front

You can't have too much tuck upfront :D

Get those rears out!!

I'm puttin 20mm spacers on the cults out back!

Sorted, so you got it on then without having to ring me :D

Did you get the horn sitting flush then, and is your steering wheel now slightly mis-aligned? Also, airbag light? On/off?
