Whatever you do, DO NOT use 4 x 100mm wheels (Gemini, Mitsubishi, Honda, Toyota), even if they physically fit!


thanks very much 8)

Not that I'm disagreeing with what you're saying, but could you explain your comment a bit more? Couldn't the 4x100 but altered so they are suitable?

Problem with running 4x100 pattern is it bends the wheel studs. Which then break... :shock:
It is possible to drill the wheel bigger at 4x4" and fit steel inserts, depending on the wheel geometry, of course.

Would you be able to fit these to a Mini? (can't see why you can't) They are available as a 14x6 size blank that can be custom-drilled...
