Hi all,

I'm looking for some group 5 flares (3' wide), I did purchase some from mini spares some time ago but it has come time to fit them are a poor fit, by this I mean, not enought recess for allen key bolts and rubber strip does not fit around same.

Does anyone know of any better flares out there? I can only find the same type of flare on the usual websites
