Moulded Wheel Arches for GU
I got pulled over last week by the po-po. He told me that my tires were outside of my guards... I am running 35/12.5/15s and the tires do stick out... by about 20mm (Which in my opinion is not much but still outside the guards.) He said that in order to save myself getting yellow-stickered, I needed to get wider wheel arches or go down a tire size...
The question I have is has anyone heard of a manufacturer of wider wheel arches for the GU other than the rubber flares?

Nah other than Bunnings garden edging.
There might be a mob that do a wider fibreglass
replacement but I've only ever seen 4"-6" wider
and that was from an OS member

I've seen a couple of Gus over this way with the rubber bushranger type flares added to the factory flares, IMO looks crap but does the job..... Bunnings garden edging would look worse

I hope they have an English speaking area on their site!

Sorry a bit off topic... But have to ask.
So he let you off with 35s but warned you about them sticking out ?
I nearly got stickered for having tyres an inch over factory ones but got lucky as I have a perfect record were his words.
