Decent arch rubber

Post by timwilks13 » Wed Dec 04, 2013 4:26 pm

What kind of rubber are people using on for the arches? I have some rubber test mat from work but think its going to be too flimsy, and everything i can find on ebay just looks a bit s#@t and thin.

is there no shops that sell rubber? our local auto body shop sells rubber in big sheets, and on small rolls like 100mm wide, 50mm wide etc, I've been eying them up already.
It's not a question of how much you spend on your suzuki, but when your money will run out
