does any1 have any pictures of a clubman with the 13x7 superlites and no bodykit. dont think i've ever seen one before, i wanna do it, but dont know what the arches will look like. do they fit??? want ones kinda like twincam minis, i think thats what the guys at the local mini place showed me.

and also i've been told i need spacer drums to fit them in... and i dont have them, is this true? can i do somethin else about this?

and just how much will my speedo go out if i put these on? like if im doing 80k's what will my speedo read?

sorry i keep bringing this up, i just want them and wanna be 100% sure that i can put them on without too much hasle, otherwise they'll be sitting around in my garage for months like everything else i buy :oops:

Do you have a clubby s? if so you already have spacer drums, i'm not sure about what is needed for 13x7's though..

The rolling diameter is pretty much the same be it 10's 12's or 13's. I would take a stab as say it will be no more than ~5km/h either way..

We have a set of 13x7 minilites at home (i think they're 7" they're not dished like the ones on that van but have 175's on em).

SO farkin sweet. Pity the car it was on had the flares fiberglassed to the body and when the tires scrubbed it cracked the paint and everything!

What are these things worth? my sisters gonna try to sell em but i dont want her too. i'd rather keep them for one day when one of us does up a mini.. but all she sees is $$ :\

They are awesome wheels and the Van looks awesome with them on :)...

In regards to how much your speedo will be out.. I think that will be more dependant on what profile tyre you fit :)..

you might get away with the el chepo plastic screw on flares but i'm not 100% sure it would cover the wheels

BUT they look absolutely wicked oh and yes they do foul on the front of the guard not sure by how much
