Hi all,
I want to run 10" steel wheels with 165 tyres and no flares so I guess I need 4.5" wide wheels?
Are the 9 hole S wheels the only option or are there other suitable steelies around?
Thanks

LS offset Contessas are what people often use. Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk |

Thank. I have a set of those, but want to use steel wheels instead. |

Oh sorry. I didn't read the heading properly before replying. 165 tyres will fit on standard steelies. Some standard steelies will also clear 7.5 discs also, but a lot won't, so keep that in mind. Sent from my SM-N960F using Tapatalk |

There’s not much option in 4.5” steels. There’s Cooper S or Clubman GT wheels and then older wheels that have been customised If you like the look of steel wheels you can also get the alloy copies https://minisport.com.au/mini-10x45-coo ... set-4-rims |

standard clubman S wheels are 4.5" - dime-a-dozen - I gave 2 sets away for a bottle of JD earlier this year |

Don’t forget you can’t run S wheels with standard drums  Cheers, Ian |

Were any of the standard type steel wheels available in 4.5”? I am considering putting the original 850 type wheels on mine, but I’d prefer to have A008’s These are listed as 4.5”, I’m not sure if this is a mistake? https://minisport.com.au/mini-10x45-ste ... andblasted These have 165 tyres and don’t look like the tyres are too ballooned? They don’t appear to be widened https://www.gumtree.com.au/s-ad/camden- ... 1240283217 Attachment: C499A2AB-2097-40D5-B88D-9866D98374E2.jpeg

3.5" Mini wheels are too narrow for 165/70 tyres. Handling is crap. Use 145/80-10 instead, however there is not much tyre choice now. Falken or ?? |
