The thing is 13 down is most tastelessly showy which I have answered tacKiest so the K would be where the d is in rowdiest

I don't see a problem with 'wonkiest' TBH.

Thanks folks I will use that it just makes me think of something that's not straight rather than disorderly.

cOncur would also give you the second letter for rowdiest .Online thesaurus shows 'rowdy' as synonm for ' disorderly'

Shooty, I maybe use wonky/wonkiest differently - to me, a wonky clock is one that doesn't work properly/loses time say, a wonky chair is the shaky one and so on. 'Disorderly' evokes more a sense of mess or being badly-behaved. I'll maybe investigate … ie check in my dictionaries. (This is just for curiosity, not to settle the clue!)
