Now measure how much wider the wheel is compared to the guard from above. See how much inner clearance there is, get offset changed to suit and get the remainder of the extra outer width cut out?

/ cut car to suit.

possibly because they have no tyres on them?

Get one of those big blue plastic drums and cut it up and bend it to shape.

There is a how to thread somewhere on the internet that tells you how to make them.

I don't know where I saw it. Try looking for boso.

All good man.

I'm not sure it would even look "good" with those rims on there as they are, given what you'd have to do to make them fit. Maybe on a bigger, older car. It comes down to whether you want to/are able to do something likely no one else has done before to this model. I suggest you likely don't, but that's your decision to make.

No one really gives a fuck if you decide to bail on this idea. Just get them cut down to suit and claim that was the plan all along :mrgreen: Good luck

Odd as it may sound this kind of makes me want to buy an mx5 and actually pull off a slightly less ambitions ride height / wheel combo.

Maybe a 14 or 15x8 at 0 offset would work nicely without flares.

Such as this sort of thing (since i already have a set of these wheels)

Goes off to trawl trawl trademe.....
