Gentlemen, on your Ultimas, with the wheels facing straight ahead on level ground, do the wheels sit inside the arches, are they proud of the arches or do they sit flush with the arch?

Many thanks,
Tim.

Just checked my GTR. Slightly inside arches.....at a guess about 1/2 inch for rears and maybe closer to 1 inch at front (measurements guessed as viewed at top of arches. Std Ultima alloys.)

I'm pretty certain mine were about level and definitely didn't sit inside. Forgelines though, not Ultima.

Thanks for all the replies guys, much appreciated.
Also roughly what is the gap between the inner arch and the inside of the back wheel?

Thanks again,
Tim.

looking at that photo it looks like the camber needs adjusting which will bring the top of the wheel further inwards..

Hi Dom,

This was about a year and a half ago, the bodywork wasnt fitted just sitting on the chassis. (bottom Pic)

Top pic, yep - however the wheel was just slightly turned thats all, but i can see what your saying.
