Hi All, Just joined the forum, been having a little look about. Been away from minis for a couple of years, just got myself a nice yellow clubman, 1275, cooper s head and gear ratios , small cam(not sure what grind), 45 weber, metro turbo discs. All in all a neat little car at a real good price. Will post some pics when i take some. Now for the thinking out loud part, Thinking about putting it back on 10 inch wheels. And maybe some Clubman GT stripes (how many cooper s replicas are out there???) Thanks all , Matt O |

Sounds like a nice little car. I'm sure everyone would love to see some pics (Instructions in the How To section). Love the idea of 10" wheels and GT stripes. Ryan |

![]() from memory i think they fit on SOME 10" wheels due to fouling on the calipers....someone can confirm |

Pretty sure 10s wont fit on metro turbo brakes, so will probably sell those and the 12s with yokos , for cooper s discs and some 10s. chopchop how much are the stripes? |

10s are the way to go. And so is a 45 Weber which really sounds the business. If it's got a 3.44 diff you'll be ok, even with a cam and a tall S first gear. I ran my 1310 like that for years as a daily driver in Melbourne. Funtastic ! |

ollie, glad to hear you are on 10's. I don't know how many people tried to get me on bigger wheels but a mini just looks right on 10's. IMHO. |
