Ok... Mini 1000 Racing is coming... Time to start preparing the car. 1994 Rover Mini Cooper. Today i took the 13 by 5.5 superlites off, no problem. on with the 10 by 5 superlites... car looks awful. of with the superlites... on with 10 by 6 widened steelies.... still awful... maybe my dragway splats next??? Why is it 10" wheels look great... until you've had bigger. |

Ok this is a discussion i have had a few times and think of it like this, the 13's are great as a show of set but for practicality 10's are good for racing like wearing dinner shoes that look really great you would want to run around the block a few times in them. 10 and 12's offer little differnce and over here there are most of the cars running on 10's and a clubman running on 13's at it looks great.but doesnt perform as well. |

It DID NOT sit low on 13s.... Its just the wheels filled the guards. And you couldnt turn ![]() IMPRACTICAL BULLSHIT So 10s fit nice, you can actually get onto steering lock, and do u turns and such. Fit hilos, lower it to where you want, and STILL be able to do u turns!! ![]() Go the 10s! ![]() |

well i liked 10's until i had 12's which made the 10's look frumpy, then danielle got 13's which made my 12's look daggy. |
