Rolling Arches

Post by concept-e »

Hi,

Anyone know where I can get my arches rolled in the London/S.London area. I don't want to do it myself and crack the paintwork. My GT is dropped 70mm and it rubs a bit.

Hehe having seen this one in the flesh yesterday I'd say "rubs a bit" is a serious understatement... you cant get your finger between tyre and arch when it's parked with the steeringwheel turned a little!

It's LOW

Right now its Steve speaking, yeh im checking out lower profile tyres but i want new alloys anyway. (If anyone is selling some?) Something euro so they will be small and won't rub as much, but yeh 30mm-40mm profile would be better than the current 55mm.

Cheers for that Tahrey1043, i like it LOW!!! Hope you had a good journey and the seats etc were ok???
