Just curious did many of these make there way to OZ? They are erm.. like 12"x 4.5 i think. And if they did and you know someone with them.. do you know if its possible to use them with like just a chrome strip and no wheel arches?

Ill put a post in the wanted section but just wondering if Im barking up the wrong tree and have to get a set from minispares UK.
I will soon have a set of 13inch x 8inch superlite mags with slicks *with carbon flares to match!.. and the wife and I agreed it is taboo to cut guards on my Van as we dont want wheel arches and I am up for something different to minilites.so they will be for sale I guess... and she likes /sighs.... /sighs again... Pepper pots!
So does anyone know if you can find these in Oz?

First places I'd try:
Josh at Miniimports
Mini King

One of these guys I'd imagine has a set because they import or have parts for import cars.
:D

I brought in a whole pile of Metro pepperpots (slightly different to the ones shown above) from England quite a few years ago now, they needed wheel spacers to get them out enough, but worked a treat once the spacers were fitted

They needed spacers even with discs and back drum built in spacer? or were they on drum/drum?

That would've been with spaced drums, but the Mini pepperpots won't need spacers.
