New wheels vs old.
2 pics from before arch rolling the front, the car is jacked slightly in the pics to save dropping the edge of the arch onto the tyre
A few shots from after, the arch is battered as the roller wasnt doing an amazing job as when the arches had been replaced by the previous owner they werent properly bolted on so hammers and pry bars were used as well. The front shot really shows how far the wings were pulled (almost an inch each side by my measurements). You can see the whole wing bowing out at the sides. However I have no rubbing on the wings so far, even on bumps while turning corners. Ive got a tiny bit of a rub both side at about an eight of a turn of steering wheel both ways on whats left of the arch liners.
Oh and from the side. Drift spec y0! Now it has front end grip in the wet its really tail happy rather than understeering like it used to. Ill get the rears rolled and fitted when the weather is dryer.
If the pump isnt done next month Im gonna get some mods for some added camber and track at the front.
