New MK cycle wings with 205/40/17 tyres on 7,5 J rims???

Does anyone have experience with 205/40/17" tires on 7,5J rims in combination with the new MK cycle wings? (the ones with small extensions over the cycle wing brackets).
I'd like to know if they fit.

Thanks,
Marcel

I've been aligning my wings over my 7" wide rims and its very tight. Don't think 7.5's will fit

Thanks!
Unfortunately; they are smaller than my 7,5J rims.... I guess I'll have to use some Dax cyclewings instead.

Just out of interest, LOLOcost make extra wide front arches, they cover my 205/40/17's just right. Quality is v. good.
....A damn sight cheaper than Dax

Spoke to Phil at Stoneleigh today as I am faced with the same problem. He has asked his fibreglass man to knock up some of the new style cycle wings an inch wider as he has become aware of this problem.
