I'm considering buying some 13x7 wheels and i'm wondering how far they stick out from the guard?

If i get them i'd buy some miglia arches, but these come in 105mm and a wide 150mm version..just wondering what 7" wheels are closer to?

Have a look at Chris's (Twincammini)'s ones. they stick out like dogs ***s...
Dunno if the offset is `right' but he has had wheel bearing and balljoint problems with them.
I'd stick with the 13x6 Superlights like Brad has.

Yea...they look hot though

I like these:


They don't look as deep dished as the minilites..not sure on the offset though..

If any one is after a set of Wheel arches for 13 Inch wheels I have a set of Wood and Picket Arches which I got from the UK for a Project that was not even started. $250. + post. Can send Pics if any one is interested. Email address is required. Sorry Guys I have not mastered the art of posting Pics on here yet.

They do stick out a fair way.. These are 13 x 7 performance superlites, with only 175/50/13 rubber on them, the rim is actually wider than the rubber...

gordo that looks heaps tough but lol wish ya could leave them like that and go matt black yer

Mmm..that's tough

Gordo, would you be able to measure it for me? that way i would get a good idea for the width i need the arches to be. As i said i can get 105mm and 150mm

The wheels are actually off the car atm, havnt been on it for over a year, due to the re-freshing of the van.. But from memory i think they stuck out a little over 3" prob about 3.5"

cool..that'd be 105mm then

If i get them i might just get the wheels first and then sort out flares to match..rather than guess and hope.

I have 10" on the van at the moment and because i have camira brakes ont he front the 10's obviously dont fit over the brakes, so i inverted them just to roll it around on and the 10"s inverted stick out about the same width as the 13's do normally
Prob not the best pics but they are all i have atm....

sorry guys a bit off the subject but gordo who is the maker of ya bodykit. and is it a pain to fit??

I was told it a zeemax kit, well it looks like one to me... And they do require a bit of modifying to fit them, cut the guards to suit and notch out the front flairs to suit the external hinges
and in the above pics its just sitting there not attached to anything

Have you got spacered drums on there?

these performance superlight 13x7 only stuck out around an inch on my van with std drums all round.

Yeah i have spaced drums on the rear and camira brakes on the the front...
In that photo of yours it looks more than an inch, but still its less than what was hanging out off mine
