Still yet to see the car, but I'm in two minds about the current 12" wheels on it versus finding a nice set of 10" Miniators. 
We'll see how the poll results come in , but I might be open to selling these wheels and buying/swapping for a set of 10" Miniators if someone else if feeling the need for a change. |

One thing you have to consider is the front brakes. Have you got disc brake front end? If yes, the size of the disc will determine if you can fit 10" wheels. I prefer mine with 10" wheels. |

It's got 7.5 S discs, so FFS put some 10s back on it!! The old Jellybeans we had on it looked better than those Chinese things.. 
my favourite pic- 
ps I'd grab some decent 10" rubber whilst you still can. I like A008s for road use, they hang on pretty well and last lots longer than A032Rs or Formula Rs. |

I run 13's for range and club drives, and shows but 10's for everyday driving. Mmmmmmm the smoothness of a 10" wheel. It's like riding on AIR and not a train! |

It would look excellent with a set of Dunlop or Tasman alloys. Tim |

I've got nothing against contessas, but they aren't the most uncommon wheel you come across. 
To be honest, if it was mine I'd be going for original 4.5" steel wheels. Tim |
