I have just got some superlights from the Uk, they are 12 x 6 deep dish just wondering what flares to use to cover them. They stick out 2.5" at the top of the guard.

Whoa! :o Yeah sportspacks, if they are the correct width, 'over hatted' archs don't look nice at all. Group 5s perhaps?

I have 10x6 Minators which stick out a half inch on what I have been told are group 2's on my car.

PS, I'd try and stick to the black flairs, they just work awesome with your car, I don't think it would look as great with colour matched flares.

Thanks i will be leaving the flares black, they really do suit the orange so i guess i should look at sportspack arches and group 5. And yes there is a engine in it, i have just fitted the rims so the cars is still a little high.
