Poeee, I had it like that- with 145/10s.. but couldn't get the power to the road. Apart from that, steel wheels are never truly round, even S ones.. balancing was a PITA! :x

I don't think you will find many people who would agree that a Morris 1100 is superior to a Cooper S. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

i think:
level 1 - restoring a mini, casually on ausmini
level 2 - slowly restoring a mini, weekly on ausmini
level 3 - having a break from restoration, on ausmini daily
level 4 - paying someone to restore, on ausmini hourly
level 5 - finished restoration, living on ausmini

or something to that extent :wink:
