Does anyone have any pictures of their car with 10x6 alloys without any form of arch extensions? I wanted to get an idea of how much they would stick out past the bodywork

The car is an MKIV standard shell with MAG 6x10 and Dunlop Racing tyres.
Hope it helps you.

Yes it's my MKIV with the wheels of the JEM. The additional silencer was originaly designed for the Marcos (single box line) according the noise level limit for the track access. I use it for the JEM too.

Can you turn the wheels or must you always drive in a straight line?

Yes it looks very strange  
I took these pictures one day when I wanted to test the wheels of my racing JEM. I found it funny and took some pictures. Normally, the car is equipped with 4.5 x10 wheels for road and 5x12 for the trackday.

I had never thought about the fact that the wheels should be able to turn  .

Think I might stick with the 5x10's I have, don't think I would get away with that much tread showing somehow!
