i got bored off Grey wheels so decided to have my wheels done professionally by The Wheel specialist in Birmingham.acid dipped and powder coated and refitted in one day   if i ever get bored with the color might try using plasi-dip paint as apparently you can just peel it off??

 

 Just ordered some Weller white center cap stickers so should match my color code

Nice contrast. You should paint each one a different colour, I was going to with my steels, in neon colours!

Yeh, plasti-dip peels straight, and doesn't affect the surface behind.

Looking to buy new wheels...but I have a Question about wheel size for my fellow 10" wheel lovers;)

im not sure what I should go with. I want the classic 10" white "look alike" Cooper wheel from mini spares with the hub cap but want to go as low as possible with the car. Looking at the 10x4.5 and/or 3.5. I have the 7.5 Cooper s brakes up front and the spaced rear drums on the car. Rear camber brackets and adj front lower controll arms. And no flares...:)
is the rim lip much different on the 10x3.5 or even fit over the 7.5 brakes?
Just thinking I could tuck the wheel a bit better with the 3.5".

Hey guys, wanted to pic some brains, ive got 12inchs on me mini n wanted to go towards a standard steel wheel look but ive got discs on, I assume they are standard discs but don't know the size but what I'm wondering is would I need any spacers or do any grinding to the caliber to get them to fit or would it just be a take off a put on jobby ? Cheers in advance !

I'd check to make sure, but you probably have standard 8.4" brakes, so you'll need this kit so the 10's fit over the caliper http://www.minispare...px|Back to shop

Cheers rossknight, I had a look earlier without taking The wheel off, and there seems to be quite a gap between the caliber and the inner edge of the wheel, would it be possible that there are 12 inch wheels on the cooper s brakes ?

What year car is it? I would have thought they are 8.4's, If you take the wheel off and you can see 4 bolts on the flange then it's 8.4 if it's screws then it's 7.5 discs.
