Does anyone know the exact width of Group 5 Bullet arches?

Smudger what arches do you do that are 3.5" to 4" wide? They're to go on a clubman.

Cheers,
Josh

Very few arches suit the Clubman, you can fit the sportspack with fiddling, and the Euro and Gp5 Wide can be fitted, again with fiddling.

I dont do the Euro Bullet.

Let me guess, 13" wheels, lol

14's ! I think the bullets look best, i dont like the look of sportspack arches on a clubby.

Thanks anyway. Does anyone know the exact width?

Should of looked at pic, that would of gave away the wheel size.

Its one of the problems running Clubman, very few options for arches out their.

Dont Avonbar do the Bullet arches too?
