Hi everyone,

I'm a member on various mini forums in Europe, but I'm new to this one, and for a very specific reason : I was browsing through the mini wheel directory that's available on a German forum, and came across a model that comes from Australia. The picture is labeled Performance Turbo 6x12 and I can't seem to find any reference to these wheels at all.

I've contacted Performance, and they said they thought they recognised the model and that they would ask around.
I saw that of your members mentioned having a pair of 12x5 in a post, but that's about the extent of information I have about them. At least I know they exist.
I've also looked for alternatives, but no one seemed to make 12 inch versions.

I've found a couple pictures of a car with 13 inch Cheviot wheels, but those have had to be redrilled as PCD wasn't right for a mini.

If anyone knows anything about these, you would make my day! If anyone has a set they wished to sell, you'd make my year!

Many thanks,

Max

They were also known as 'Hurricanes'

I found a few old catalogs for you, all mention 13x6 as the smallest

Note:
Cheviot turbo
Performance hurricane
Globe hurricane
Aunger turbo

It’s worth asking on the Aus classic mag wheels Facebook page too
