I will be going for those group 7 carbon arches on my mini. I am running 8x13 split rim revolutions so I also have a large offset.

I love that fact that some ignorant Chav companies are selling GP7 arches for Minis. Minis NEVER raced in group7 as this was for single seaters.

I guess it's down to pub pints. The bigger the arches, the bigger the wheels etc...
