dont give up... front tyre fits look fine to me..i think do they fit..just needs slight negative camber and its sorted..tyres wont fade that quick if you drive slow and normal
mine previous tyres lasted long time with too much negative camber... how bad is the rear arch??? did he rolled back the lip though.. for the paint crack cover it with some underseal !!!! theres always 1 dodgey arch... get some pix up... -
thanks mate like yours to very jdm
i like it low only problem i have is the dodgey exhaust other then that i can go over humps easy.. and the drive is comfy plus you have teins proper good quality coilovers..so the drive must be wicked... -
leave it ..the guy will take it out himself...once its done he will modify it and put it back on
-
it should be ok nothing to worry about.. when you getting them done??can wait to see them rimz fitted.. proper stanced
-
take your wheels with you...they will test fit once arches rolled if they need more work doin or not
-
you will get a few hair line cracks ....what you can do is ...is use halfords underseal to cover the cracks and underseal the whole lip!!!!but if heat gun is used properly it can prevent cracks...im from walsall just outside bham..
-
my civic has one ...if you aint got one must have been taken out by a previous owner
-
thanks paul you wont love it at the moment its proper dirty.... as you can tell by the wheels the brown not black lol
-
i dont recommend doing a diy just incase the paint cracks and flakes then youll have problems!! if you can get a arch roller then go for it but keep a heat gun handy
-
seriously get it done by emperor garage...90 you probs can get all 4 done...plus before they do it they will clean it..and after roll..they will seal the arch!!! profesional job.arch enemy over priced i reckon dor the job he did wasnt worth it!!! but thats my experience ...but if you do get it done tell him to roll it nearly all the way.. ill post a pic showing how far to roll the lip..
-
looks good mate love the drop
-
i used arch enemy from oxford for the rear.. they didnt do a good job.. he rolled back the lip.. but he left another 2 inches of arch lip kept touching my tyre so got it re done at emperor garage in bham the front and rears for £60 did a wicked job... yes had plenty of negative camber before driver side was worse ....so i gave it some positive camber by adding washers between camber and body!!all aligned now just front tracking need to be done now

update did the diy alignment washer trick on the rear wheels ..cost me £1 saved me loads of bucks
it worked out sooooo good soo happy.... if you going to have go at it just go down your diy store and get 'm10 x1.5 40mm bolts ..and some washers ...i used 6 washers 3 each side.. heres a pic of it now sooooo close to the arch does not touch even with people in the back!! looks way better now heres some pix
need to get my front wheel bearing sorted so i can fit the spacers on the front!!!!
-
just did a diy alignment for £1 .. got 2x m10 40mm bolts and 4 washers... it did the job well worth it .. took me no more then 15 mins

you should get coilovers the ride n comfort much better then just springs..the ride will suit them seats
thats what i have done to mine just lowered the rear so the arch is just level with the tyre.. done same with the front to..when you sit in it will give the fronts a slight tuck ...told my bro to drive my car it looked sexy heres a pic of mine
