Re: Not a Ford

Hi Ant. I run 7" x 10" MB split rims. They may be a bit wide and fragile for road use however people do run them on the road. I would suggest you run 6" x 10" minilights for the road. The arches I get from Peter Vickers at Altered Images Coachwork in Strood. They are the same as the Ian Curley ones but are glassfibre. I tend to break them quite often so they are a cheaper option.

Re: Not a Ford

alright cool thanks mate... i was planning on using group 7 arches... but i do like the look of them
can i be nosey and ask you how much they cost?

cheers

Re: Not a Ford

I think they are about £60.00 a set but I could be wrong. 13's do look good but most believe that 10's give better handling.
