I like the 13s better. Painted black they would look swish.

Thing is you see revos on loads of minis. Those other ones you dont. And their really not chavy.

Just had a thought, how about the black and red ultralites? I think minisport sell them.

Or thinking about it again why dont you spray those 13s white. That could look good.

Those would never fill the arches without spacers. They do look good though.

Too modern - possibly, but the Revo are just too 'ordinary' and not unique enough. And even lowered I don't think the 12" will fill the arches as nicely.


I have to agree Graeme, if I can get the wheels painted quick
James might let me keep them for a week or two :D

didnt think you would be useing spacers.

I just cant help thinking your car would look awsome with some really deep dish wheels. And those 12x5.5's dont really have much of an offset on them compared to the 12x6inch wheels.

Just been browsing for my own car and found these: http://www.minispare...mp;prod_id=2108
IMO they would look GREAT on your car!

They are 12x6 and they are as deep as they come!

You can keep them for as long as you need!

I'm happy with mine sat on steels untill you are sorted with yours.
