I don't know exactly but BBS rims with a big old dish. When you say arch work what do you mean, rolled??

Yeah...sound like they're going to be rm's or rs's...speak to march109 on here, pretty sure he's running 8" rm's on the back of his car

I'm running 8" as RSlut says.

My car is lowered 60mm all around and frankly that should help the top of the tyre clear the arch but they still needed to be rolled, in fact I had my rear arches flared too but that was for extra piece of mind and the cool look.

They sound interesting, I still have a set of rm's and rs' myself, good wheels the rms are slightly more delicate and don't take well to hitting kerbs!
