Hi i am trying to fit sportspack wheels under standard arches. I have seen a few minis with this but my problem is that the spacered drums take the wheels out of the arches but if i remove them the wheels will rub on the inner wheel arch. Does anyone know what modifications are needed to fit the wheels under the standard arches? any help would be great as i have my driving test in three weeks and need to get the mini MOT’d. thanks
Sportspack wheels = 13", which straight away means cutting the wheel arch, and the A panel, fitting wider arches to cover tyre tread, and either fitting a limited steering rack from an MPi, or fitting rack reducers, possibly by KAD, to stop the wheels touching the inner arch.

the wheels are on and they turn full lock left and right no problem dont come near hitting anything so i don’t need to cut the wings and a panel. the front wheels sit within the arches legally but the back ones protrude out due to the spacered drum. Yet i have seen minis with sportspack wheels on with the standard black arches and the rear wheels are also flush with the arches. I was just wondering if any modifications can be made to remove the spacered drums without the wheels hitting the inner arch?
