if its only the back then skim the brake drum,

or cut away soem of the metal which the arch screws onto an just bond the arch on, u shud get the edge where u cut welded tho!!

rolling both archs?? impossible there isnt an arch to roll.

you just remove the plastic arch trim and stick it on with trim adheasive, then if it still rubs fit some slightly longer bumpstops into the rear shocks.

would arch work be enough to stop the metal arch lip cutting into the tyre? cos im not sure it wud be! an i can't afford any new wheels! which would be cheaper?ive had a quote for rolling both rear arches and its £70 so if that works then ill be fine

it surely cant be that hard a job to do? depending on the wheel i'd have to see, but im sure you could turn off 5-10mm max from most alloy wheels if you know any engineering companies with a centre lathe big enough

it is dangerous to do, buy some higher offset wheels or do arch work.
