im hopefully buying some new wheels

7 x 14 front
8 x 14 rear

stretched tyres

They are a et32, so im the guessing the standard arch (rolled and debolted) will rub!........ alot ???

will these wide arches fix the problem?, or do they not come out more?

Just want to make sure before buying! thanks guys!

may do but def wont unless the metal lips are cut up. its the metal lip and the inside of it that the wheels will rub on, not the plastic arch

Cheers! top advice!

Probably will be best keeping standard arches and trying to somehow make sure rubbing wont be a major problem! maybe wont be as bad on 14s with a stretched tyre!

Luke, cut the inner arches, knock it up as far as you can, weld up, and weld on mk1 astra/golf arches like mine! You know it makes sense!
