If people have heaps of trouble tryin to fit 13x7s on their mini, specically in the front, why not go 13x7s in the rear, and 10x5s in the front? How would this affect the drivability and performance in the mini in regards to steering?

I ran 13xx6's on the rear and 10x5's on the front for a while.

I quite liked it. Rear traction was great for corners, added a bit more weight which was nice.

It would have looked better if the front wheels hadnt have looked so old.

Now I run 10's all around.

I agree, Each to their own.

why dont you get one of the guys that does those photoshop things in the "mini media - brickshop" forum to have a go at it to see what it looks like
