The k-series conversion i'm doing sticks the wheels out a little extra too.

And with 7.9 disks they come out even more!

 

I know quite a few places sell them that's not the issue. Im not sure how wide they are!

and how do they look on 6x10 wheels, are they made for 7inch wheels?

Can I trim them down.. and if so.. how? :)

The miglia arches come wide as standard and you can trim them down to fit any width wheel really. ive just come of 6x10's to 7x13's and think my arches really suit the stance. Ive trimmed mine down around 1.5 inches to give you an idea

Looks good!

How did you trim them?

Dremel tool or something? :)

I used to run 6x10s with a 1" spacer, heres a link to another thread http://www.minifinit...php?f=5&t=75010 cant believe I use to use that forum!

 

I then changed to 7x10 MBs but was never happy with the stretched 165 tyres.  Ive now gone more retro, with 6x10s, no spacer with grp 2 arches. 

 

You can trim the Mig arches down to get them exactly right.
