I hate to sound negative on this I hope they arent the wheels i sold to him (13" hotwires) I sold them to him for the tyres. they are NOT the right offset for a mini and bend the studs to get them to fit which is not safe. hope they werent passed off to you as mini wheels...... |

If 100mm PCD, I wouldn't use them without modifying to 101.6mm (4") PCD. I have seen wheel studs break because of this.... ![]() |

im getting the nut suppliers to check the holes on the wheel with a stud impression i made on paper (parents dont wanna go mokin' tomorrow ![]() and will ask them nicely if they can do something about it. if not possible then ill take the rubber off (still good) and slap them on steelies cheers |

I bolted the wheels up to a mini brake discs with no problem, they all fitted nice and snug with no stress on the studs. Chris i belive you may have been given the wrond info on the wheels, they will fit a Moke no drama's at all. Doogie |

Mmm... Get them measured, just to be safe. It's better than dying. |

went to niceproducts in marrickville said they didnt have any nuts for the wheels (they supply repco and supercheap) nothing. option 1. get some custom made(no need for attractiveness. just purpose). how much $$ do you think it will cost? option 2. take the tyres off (i want them) and ebay the rims. slap the 165 and 185's on steels any other options? |
