God!! that is a beast.
Did those arches come with the body kit?
If so what body kit?

The arches are wide fortech. I had to extend the rear aches by nearly a foot so that I could fit a rear bumper (which is just a fortech front bumper). The sides skirts are bmw m3 style, cut and modifies to fit. Took a lifetime to fit the kit as it is all seemless and needs loads of strengthening to prevent cracks.

Well looks like the hard work payed off.
Looks the mutts nuts. :)

Very impressive!

What size rims / tyres to fill those arches?

Thanks guys for all the nice comments.

The rims are 13*8 deep dished superlites, the tyres are pirellis but I cant remember the size though!

are they 13 by 8 JJ, I have the same wheels on mine as its also got real wide arches. What spacers are you using all round only your wheels look like they protrude more than mine?

I had to fit 3/4 spacers to rear. I modified the angle of the bodykit so that the wheels would fill the arches properly.

The front picture of the mini shows the orignal 12" wheels on. When I fitted the 13" to the front they filled the atches 100% so I did'nt have to fit any spacers.
