Hi guys
Im looking to make the arches on a friends 5 wider, (mk1 ) looking at rolling the arches but i dont know if that will suffice, wheels are 8inches or something, anybody know where one could get some sort of wide arch bodykit?

Thanks as always

Adam

You can roll them, it has been done before with that size wheel IF it's a 15 inch, but what is the REAL size of the wheels & tyres ?
Flare kits, there are a number of differet types out there. Small arches, 2 types of medium arches and another two or more types of wide body kits that are MAJOR wide.
