Aye, im assuming it was one of the rears that went? uber stretch on the back! Still, that thing looks immense!

13 x 7 weller mattigs, ET20, 4 x 100. Brand new tyres, slight stretch. :D

No I don't get any arch rubbing, its the fact the wheel itself hangs outside the arch by about an inch

Not sure on the offset and neither was the seller

I've peeled 175/50/13's off the rim when skidding mate. Too much stretch and you break the bead it seems.

Diff welded? I've had trouble on the front, but the back done it at least once too. lol

They don't look like Alleycats to me lol. More (kinda) like an ATS or Revo RFX etc. I just can't think what they are atm. Nice and deep though. 340pw

no id like to run 13x8 as thats what the fronts are and they fill the arch without an inch of poke out the arch unlike the rears

i could flare the rear archs but i dunno what that would look like, may look stupid with huge arch flare
