Thats right, mega minis do indeed sell them ?450 gets you 4 wheels (polished) , tyres 175x50x13 and a set of chrome wheel nuts. Very nice wheels they are too :)

Hey Fab (and anyone else that fancies answering this) Just how badly does running 13" wheels affect the ride? As i have 13x7 revolutions ..... surely the handling cant be that bad cuz didnt the late rover minis have 13's on (sportspack etc)?????

I just got rid of m 13X7's as with a turbo engine, I found the torque steer so bad it was dangerous. I think 13X6's are fine, its theextra offset in 7's which is the problem

13x6 are ok however they definatly arent the best (I drive a rover sportspack as my everyday car). Not a patch on 10s however they do look very nice. As always trade off between looks and handeling

ive got 13x7 on my mini and i know wot you mean about the torque steer jimster especially if you get in a dip in the road you have to do a lot of steering to keep it remotely straight and i love it!!!! *tongue* *tongue*

no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.
