gaf, the rebels look great, had them modified to fit blown and restored. Have a small problem though, the other rims I am using are 3 piece and the actual inside area of the rim is bigger. My discs are 10.5 inch diameter and the calliper scrapes on the inside of the rebel rims. I am having them machined to remove a mm from the inside and I will have to remove about 1.5 mm removed from the calliper. After all that they should fit. I am using them as track wheels but the slicks may see a few outings on the road.


Any pic's of them on a Mini they would look very interesting :shock: I bet you were hopping they would just slide on once the wheel nut holes were re done.

Nice score Brad on the cubby I saw the clubby this also yesturday morning on Ebay and considered it. Your other half will love it for te daily drive, I'm sure Bugger Ay :lol:

Gaf, they are not on the car yet. Have some body and paint work to do first. Will post pictures as soon as car is finished. I polished the rim and edge of the spokes on the rebels and 2k painted the black part of the rim. Looks awesome and really catches the light. Should look very trick when finished. Had to modify them a bit to make them fit, but have about a mm clearance now so all is sweet.
