after fitting 36" tyres to the 90 and putting a 3" lift on there  the wheels when articulting were still fowling the arches so after a bit of thinking i came up with a new arch kit  ats still flexable so if i was to hit a tree  or something thay would just bend out the way  

also help to stop the mud flying up all over the place  have a look for your self


thanks jason

Never had a problem with just trimming standard arches with just 1.5"lift and 35" Simex's. The last 20% of each lower arch needs trimming...

Anyone tried JEEP wheelarch extensions.
Ive got a set fitted to the zook. 6 inches of coverage each side, made from ABS plastic.
Good and tough, and look good
Just bolt or screw into the bodywork
Go on....cut me in half........it says SUZUKI all the way thru the middle!!
