NG, they are 12" rims.

You can tell by the tyre. Looks like a Dunlop D01J tread pattern to me which, if my memory serves me correctly comes in 165/60R12.

Guard cutting wise - probably not, as long as it isn't sitting on it's guts. Wood & Picket flares should be ok IIRC. Don't go wrecking a nice paint job just to put wheels on.

The ausmini user is "steve1965", he got them from MiniSport UK if my memory isn't playing tricks. Have a search for his car in the Mini Gallery.

Hi NG the rims are 12x6 deep dish super lights and i did import them and the flares are group 5, the only thing that is needed is to put spacer drums on. There was no cutting of the guards at all.

Oh and i have imported another set for my trailer.

Steve

The rims handle great and the tyres are Dunlop D01J they are a great tyre.
Not sure about the wood and pickets though.
