Need a favour - wheel to arch measurement please
Can someone do me a favour and take a measurement from the centre of the wheel to the edge of the wheel arch front & rear please?
Needs to be on standard sport/S8 suspension and preferably on 20’s but 18’s will be fine as the diameter is quite close. Thanks Rich

Front about 380mm
Rear (presently unloaded but with about 3/4 tank fuel) is closer to 370mm. (standard S8 suspension and FE 20s)

Just be sure to lower the front more than the back! Something all 8s seem to have a problem with.
