where have all the 10's gone?!!
Turbo Mini Forums

Been trying like mad over the past week or so to try and find some 2nd hand wheels and tyres (even on ebay) to no avail...a lot of people I have spoken to some people who seem to think they are something of a dying breed....surely thats bollocks?!!! Anyone been having the same sort of problem?

what are you after? i've picked up a set of mambas in the last week for reasonable money (though they do have camac special hedgefinders fitted). I havent yet had any problems finding them, though they definatly are drying up. I get the impression they are being loaded onto the containers along with the 1275 engines heading towards america and aussieland.

There are some mk2 cosmics for sale down bristol way with tires on, a friend is selling them.

Brand new Minilites coipies from Minispares 6X10 are les than £40! That's cheap.
Nothing is drying up as long as they are still in production.

I was looking for a set of wellers as the car's a bit tatty and thought they would go well, make it look a real rat looker which is still my aim, but can't find new 10 inch ones anywhere.I'm on a budget slightly less than bugger all which doesn't help hence looking for second hand.
may well consider the cosmics, do you know how much he's looking for roughly?

Through a friend of a friend, the person selling is a lass

cheers for that mate much appriciated, however have just sorted a set 1100 special rims with ropey old carmacs that will do for the time being

spam ive got some of pot_dans 10's in my garage, there in quite good nick we polished them up last summer. The tyres on them are good but i put them on my clubman estate and two of them dont hold air. I can get you a photo if you want? We painted the inner bits black too.
I think they are called slotmags.
