Arch rolling front inner arch

Post by himwiththehair »

Hey guys, I'm looking at rolling my arches all round, but am wondering what is the best thing to do about the inner arches on the front. I'd like too keep them to stop general road crap and gubbins getting everywhere, but by rolling the lip back up to the inside of the arch the inner has nothing to attach to round the arch lip.

Has anyone done this and managed to come up with a way of sorting it, or do most people just pull the inners off and get busy with the underseal?

how low are you looking to go?
what profile/size tyres are you looking to run?

The plan is to roll the arches front and rear (folding the lip back on itself out of the way) so I don't have to worry bout wheels/drop etc, but am going to be running g60's with 195/50/15's for the mo with about 60-80mm drop.

In time I'll probably just 'glass up some new inner arches for the front, but was wondering if any of you guys had come up with a better way round it.
