Does anyone know what type of wheel arches will best suit a 6" by 12" rim and tyres? They are for a 1975 leyland clubman. I'm looking to try have the wheel sit just outside of the wheel arches. I've been told group 5 cooper arches are a good start?

I personally like wood and pickets, I've got a mate running 6x12 with these arches and they look good

I think Hanra is using 12s. I personally think the look, stance and arches are well suited.

Brad runs 5 x 12 rims and the flares are std width Mk2 S.

I too am thinking the wood and pickets. Hopefully get them soon, which enable me to start painting the car.
