Good choice Mitchell the aero,s are the best looking option If you call either Boris at VVW or Richard at VForce they will help, as I think it was these guys who developed them

Oh, and yes they have them for Ovals.

You running 265's or something?
I run a 215 and they still stay inside the "Rats" rear.

Looks like there double bump guards ( which i hate :puke )

they will fit a early model, but the bolts holes may differ. you should be able to fit the wheels under depending on what profile tyre you fit.

Dave I want guards that reflect the originals as much as possible what do the smoothies look like?
