Default 13" wheel advice(offsets?)

hello all, my Atlas rear axle is a Gartrac G3 item so is v. wide and even with monte carlo arches the wheels (minilite 7x13's) still fowl the arches so I need some smaller dished wheels, I got 2 off the net(replica minilite13's) that fit perfect and are made by a company called PEG but I can't find anymore, anyone heard of PEG or know of any different offset wheels as there's no room toward the arch but loads toward the coilovers. the tyres are 200/530/13 Dunlop X04 tarmac slicks.
cheers all, Andy

Is the axle on a G3 the shaft should be 52" wide they should fit with out any problems as mine was ok with 7" rims without arches. If it is on a mk2 with mote arches they should also fit as I use to run a f.f. atlas with 20/53/13 on it without any problems with forest arches.

Measure your drive shafts to see what the length is. Also measure the offset on the wheels that fit ie. how far from the rim is the back face of the center that bolts to the hub.
