Dont know how i came across these but was wondering if they would fit a mini

They do a 13" wheel with a 4" PCD, just not sure on the offset/backspacing?

Cheers

they will fit,

on a normal 7x13 the back spacing is approx 3.75"

on a sprortspack 6x13 the backspace is also around 3.75"

I think...

the price you see in dollers is waht they will end up costing in pounds plus a lilltle chunk more once they have landed here, from the weights they must be steel,

Carl, im seriously gonna look in to these but am completely unsure on the backspacing. Would a 13 x 7 with a backspacing of 3" fit on without trouble? or would a 13x8 with a 4" back spacing be better?
Thanks
Andy

leeds/wakefield.

the 3£ backspacing wil clear everything on a mini suspension, but it will leave yuo with an offset of somewhere near the 18mm neg mark , ive calculated this allowing for a 6mm outermost lip at the bead, So quite a large neg but not the end of the world, you'll need to trim the front arches for sure,

obviously the 8" wide and 4" backspace will ahve 0 offset , but you can run into clearance on the rear swing arms i beleive,

Forgot to add, I have a sportspack shell so already have the rover trimmed arches, do you think they will need further trimming?
Thanks

Just noticed they also do a 13 x 7 with a 3.5" backspacing, does that mean the offset would be zero? If so they shouldnt be to bad from my calcs, especially as some superlights and alleycats etc run an offset of -7.
I could be completely wrong though!
