Hey all,
has anyone run 13 X 5 wheels?

I have seen 13 X 7 and X6 but not 5 on a mini. Anyone know how they sit and if they need big arches. Iguess it depends on the offset, i am trying to find this out now.

I have 13 x 5.5s (though the rim width is irrelevent if the tyre is wider) and they fit under standard black screw ons (innocentis) and also, narrow cooper s flares.

just keep in mind that different wheels have different offsets....therefore a 5 inch wheel could stick out 'x' cm on one offset and something completely different on another wheel with a different offset.
