Too much of an opening for tape, probably best to just cut the arch liners to suit and put them back in.
Anyone else got any suggestions feel free to share.

Epoxy resin? I used it for filling the small gap inside the recently rolled arches.

I also would not mind slightly narrower as I am looking at Rota 17x9 and not much choice with PCD 5x100 and low et to fit these wide arches.
