If you google it mate there are loads of vids of people doing it.. I changed my mind as it looks like theres too much that can go wrong..

mine are rolled!!:cool3:

its on the inside LOL! so nothing to see.:hammer:

Its NOT a DIY job if you havent got some previous experience and "the Tool" isnt cheap.

My buddy who has workshops on the same road as Santa Pod did mine.

Jaffa on here has his rolled and stretched/flared. that is visible if you look closely.

Bobgenie has his white slicky arches rolled but like mine you cant tell from the outside.

Braver man than me Daz if you decide to give it a go!

 

have a look here for equipment

Damn I should have looked at JAE :), But surely if they are rolled then the wheels would stick out more?(with spacers) I wanted a pic of the wheels nearly flush with the arch to see what it looks like :)

You and your "look":whistling:

For Bob, Jaffa and me its about the neccessity of fitting as wide a tyre as we can so we can go round tracks quickly without wrecking expensive trackday tyres.

Its f****n dark now you will need to wait till the weekend for some pics:winkiss::winkiss:

 

Remember we do "function over form":closedeyes:
