Here's a picture of my mini on 6.5 x 10 special split rim alloys done by force racing! Love it!


What arches are you using? Car looks great!

Any mini on 10's handles loads better personally both those handle well but the 10x6 looks a little nicer

I converted my 95 Mayfair to 10" wheels.  No wing work required for mine, I have 6x10 minators with 165 70 10 A032-R yoko's.  I use a set of 60's cooper steel reverse rims (think they're 4.5x10) for the winter with 165 70 10 Falkens but much prefer the handling with the 6x10's.  Hope that helps!



Thanks for that ps mini!
How do find the A032r's, been debating whether to go for the yokos or go for falkens.
The yokos look awesome and I expect grip the road like nothing else but do they wear out quick because I've heard they only come with 4.5mm of tread from new?!?

Yeh A032R's are a wicked looking tyre but a very soft compound also so where out quicker but grip so well when they are warm. I have always used yoko A008's such a good alround tyre...

The falken is a good tyre but the Yoko is on a different planet.  Surprisingly not bad in the wet too!  My Mayfair is a third car and I do around 2k a year max.  I'd have gone for the a008 if I was doing serious mileage but love the way the A032's look and handle.

just look on the wheel directory, the offset will be on there.

Got the Classics onto the estate last night, I thinks it's fair to say they're super awesome and cool.  :highfive:

Discs up front and the 1275GT rear spaced drums will put the wheels exactly where you want them.

Yeah they're 5x10 with virtually the same offset as a Mini Special wheel.

Do you have spacers fitted to these, or is it just the 10x6 wheels that give it the wide look?
