yep, get arches that cover them (if they're anything bigger than 13x6 - sportspack style are cheapest!) and cut your front wings and 'a' panels up to get some clearance. also for the mot this year i had to hammer the inner wing/ fitch panel so the tester could get a full lock as sportspack coopers with 13's as standard has shorter steering racks so they don't foul the bodywork - thats a fail :( cheers
