What you all got?
Would like to fill the arches with standard wheels so 25mm?
Or what's the best place to buy some hubcentric ones?

Thanks :D
 
Okay, I always thought it was 25mm, guess I'm wrong haha
Anybody got any?:)
 
20 or 25 millimetre spacers will be spot on, bigger and you'll be in arch rubbing territory, any smaller and you'll not be as flush as you'd ideally like. have a look at waiteys old orange GT if you can find the progress thread from a couple of years ago, i believe he had 20 or 25 millimetre spacers on

Exactly what I was thinking! Was near Peterborough today and modified nationals is on this weekend I believe and there were so many slammed cars and got me thinking I wreckon the twingo would look great with the euro lpok
 
Yeah definitely!
Think the RS would be better than the others because of the wider body

Yeah widish arches already and I wouldn't get involved in making rear camber so inwards! Would leave camber and all that only just a simple coil over kit and spacers to bring it slightly out with a nice set of wheels
 
let's wait for the ''whats the point in owning an RS, slamming it will ruin everything it was made for'' brigade to pop along soon enough lol

The RS has the wider plastic arches. However metal of the basic wheel arch which is inside the plastic one makes for a relatively bulky arch which will cause rubbing issues if you want to go low AND wide. The normal rubbing area is around the screw which it at the top of the arch.

Its definitely workable but would require some hacking or bashing

So it's the same with the RS 20-25mm would be Ok no rubbing? Would like to fill my archies out too :D and if I'm on a limited budget could I lower it just with shorter springs 25-30 mm??
