Bigger arches for a R32?

[cruising_r32]

Hi guys,

I've been offered some 9j alloys with a nice dish for my R32.
Thing is, with the right tires on them they will be sticking out past the arches.
So rather than get shit off the guards or at NCT time I'm thinking about either rolling/ flaring the arches or getting some type of arch extension.

I've had a look through the pic of the day thread but I didn't see any 32's with them, is there a reason for that or does anyone know where I can get some?

Really want some photos of R32's with flared arches or arch extensions to help me decide...........

Thanks but no thanks!
Way too much fibre glass and filler there for my liking.
I'm looking for something simple and clean looking.

Have you got any more photos bubble- that looks very nice.
I reckon it may only be the front arches that need to be done...

[copeyhagen]

WOOOOOOP WOOOOOOOOOP its the sound of the offset police :D

[copeyhagen]

lol im guessin he has it sorted, on the first pic, the rears look like ultralite nurburgrings or better with a decent offsets so i hope the rear is similar now!!

Cheers Bubble.

Has anyone else got photos of a R32 with fat arches?

i've 9 x 17 r33 gtr alloys under my 32 gtst, rolled the rear arches and with 235/45 tyres i've never had an issue with rubbing. 235/45's on the front too and no issues there either. now i know the offset of the wheels might be making it easier for me, coz i don't know the offset of standard r33 gtr wheels.

[cruising_r32]

The alloys I've been offered have an offset of 35

They just barely clear the R33 GTR Brembos I've got on up front.

I reckon a little bit of a rolling at the rear will do the trick but the front might need a bit more.

[Prodrifter86]

ya i have 17x9's on the rear of my r32 and the arches are rolled a tiny bit by the previous owener but they stick out that much at all!

[cruising_r32]

These alloys are 18's and 9j so with the 225 rubber on them now they don't rub but if I was to put 235/245 onto them so they are not stretched the tires will be rubbing.

Who does it, where are they based and how much will it cost to have the rear arches rolled?
