I am considering getting the wheel arches rolled on my 3dr cosworth and wanted to no how the body kit arch extensions fit as they would normaly be fixed to the arch lip that is now rolled back, do you cut the arch extensions at the top, if any one has any pics of there 3dr rolled arches it will be greatly appreciated.

Not got pictures but mine are rolled and retain the screws at the bottom then either tape or sealer to stick the rest, mine have been rolled, then rolled some more then tap all the way around and the arches slightly distort making it harder to fit the kit with tap so now fitted with tiger seal but unless you running massive wheels they only need slight rolling - will you be using a correct rolling tool that mounts to the hub?

Hi yes i will be using a arch rolling tool and panel bond but want to fix the bottoms with rivets looking at 225 17s front and 235 17s back if possible have coilovers all round

Tyre manufacturers only make 225 in a 35 or 45 profile - which is a proper pain as 225/40/17 would be popular with us.

Like i said you can get screws in the lower mounts but you'll loose the top - the front still uses the one under the bumper edge.

Thanks mate thats a great help what size rims and rubber are on yours as it sits nice.
