Hi,
    Has anybody fitted the extended arches that are availble from paddocks, if so have you got some picks as I'm thinking of getting some and spacers for when i put the 750's on my disco, thanks. :D

If you're only going to fit 750's then I would go for the thinner flares that Chugga makes. The tyres will look lost with the wider ones on.  :wink:

I must admit i did think they were a tad wide, where could I get small ones, basically I want to cover up where I do the camel cut. :roll:

Roccia make the narrower ones as well, they are the "Classic" ones: http://www.roccia.co.uk/acatalog/Discovery__wheel_arch_flares.html
But you'll be doing more than a Camel Cut to fit these!

This is how much I cut out of the rear arch to fit the fiberglass ones from Devon 4x4 and if you've got a 5-door then it's a bit harder as you're cutting into the frame of the rear passenger doors.

Neil, I thought you were going for wider tyres, or is that next on the list?  :D
