I know the 5 x 10's look tight on S setup. I used superlte 6 x 10's but still needed a 5mm spacer and had to have the wheel balance weights mounted on the middle of the offset to stop the callipers ripping them off |

does anyone have these brakes with these wheels? the big problem with asking that question is that there have been more than one design of Mamba's since their inception of of which, some will and some wont fit the 7.5's so i think you're dreaming with the 7.9's http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.php?p=vt&tid=8682 On 26th Oct, 2004 TurboDave16v said:

I have original mambas 6x10 on 7.5 callipers, they need spacers to stop them locking onto the callipers.
