Hey Babes, thanks for sharing the detective work! :)

On a related note, according to Midland Wheels, the 10x5 Mambas fit over standard 7.5" Cooper S brakes.

Hmmm.... Interesting. I might have to look at investing in a set with semi slicks for the van. :D :wink:

Hi, have a mate here with minisport UK 7.9 vented discs/calipers and 10x6 Mamba's , the clearence was not enough , something like 1 or 2 mm .He ended up by adding 3mm spacers over the drive flanges.

Note: these are 7.9 vented discs, mini 8.4" drive flanges and genuine 10x6 Mamba's

cheers
Luis
