Is that your "mini" apprentice there Mick? :lol:

Can anyone with more knowledge on the matter confirm that these wheels in 10x5 will fit over standard Cooper S 7.5" calipers.

That's Bill, tool removalist, bolt pile kicker and incessant question asker... :P


Notwithstanding the differing offset, there appears to be at least a 6mm gap around the calipers even if the wheel was to be pushed inwards another 1/2 inch.
Mean inside rim diameter (in the caliper zone) is about 243mm.
