I need to double check when I'm back in the office - reading C&U I mentioned above I can't find any reference to it. Spray suppression only applies to HGVs in there. I would say you are borderline (on the wrong side of the border!) due to the rim sticking out past the arch on the front, so Reg 100 may apply (avoidance of danger), but need to check with a colleague if there's specific reasons to be considered legal/illegal. Are you running very low? Appears to be a lot of camber on the rear. You might get away with it in terms of wheel sticking out as the top edge is under the arch, but due to the camber a lot is sticking out at the bottom.

Of more concern is the apparent stretch to the tyre - post your wheel and tyre sizes and I can defo confirm if they are legal or too stretched. There is definitely guidance for that!

If you're running spacers I'd be tempted to go in 5mm all round just to prevent aggro.
