They don't look overly tight, I've run worse and it looks cool! with a set of arches it would sit brilliantly if you could get the fronts to sit about the same

That is immense and has to happen. Best K11 in the UK? You bet. Now get onto Rangerbob and order some bolt on arches which'll mean you can leave those wheels on FOREVER! Do it.

I just don't know about using that much stretch on my only vehical, the one which I use for work 40 miles a day. I'm sure the rears wouldn't look as bad with some tyres without rim protectors though. I just don't like the look of the minimal/rather a lot stretch front to rear.
It wont be getting arched. Probably.

I think you'll find those wheels are w1N, not ridiculous More arches needed.

I like a lot Mark!
I love the amount of stretch on the back. I'm after a similar look on my 8's but with maybe a little more side wall.

Mega hard decision whether to roll the arches or bolt them on TBH. I'm just not sure. I'd probably roll them myself though because 'thats how I roll' (pun intended)...
Does lowering = more camber at the rear on these?

Looks spot on, that! I love how this Micra has evolved. I thonk some arch rolling would be great. Bolt on arches might spoil the clean simplicity of the car.
