Huddersfield group 2's, the rear's cover fine with spaced Minifins on, but not sure yet about the front.. although it is running with 2.75 negative camber on both wheels.. not sure how long the tyres will last though

Ok, I think my mind is finally set for what wheels I am going to get for my Clubman Estate. I came across this picture on Google last night and I have finally found a Clubman that looks like how I want to make my CE. I'v been convinced by many people that 13"s are not the way to go with a stock Mini and that 10"s will be the best. So, I'm planning to save some pennies to buy a set of black polished rim 10x6 Ultralites for my CE. I need to find out how far these things stick out without spacers because I want to get the "fat go kart look" out of my CE instead of the look of a mini van.

I'm hoping that you great people have pictures of your Mini with 10" deep dish wheels and don't mind posting pics of it and what you did to achieve the look. (I.E. Spacered drums, no spacers, disk brakes, etc)


Thanks! -Dan

the mini that inspired you is my dads and his friends! its also for sale:

Dude thats tasty!

[shawsy]

Arches are Wood and Picket style from Huddersfield spares............. the wheels stick out quite a bit, probably about 1" - 1.5" at the front and about 0.5" - 1" at the back (Front being more because of the fiesta brake conversion). I like the look of it sticking out but it probably is a bit much ! considering getting some grp 2 wide in black, but I'm still not sure.

Hello,is it possible to post a picture of the rear side off the car here?
So I can see how the arches are on the undersite.
Thank you.

By the way; I love your Mini.

[shawsy]

The arches are similar to wood and picket but they stop short of the bumper instead of hugging underneath, which i believe original wood and picket ones do.

Anyone got any pics of theirs on Grp 2 wide arches, where is the best place to get them from, fit and quality etc.
