Ours (my son and mine) has12 x 5 Spectrum split rims with stainless steel bolts. I can remember my dad buying them from Mini Sport's stand at the Mini 35th anniversary show at Silverstone.

 

I can't remember what they cost, only that they were an expensive wheel back then and from what I can gather are no longer available.

Greetings from way across the pond.

 

I've done some searching on this site for what I'm looking for, but still having troubles narrowing it down to the specifics that I'm looking for. Looking for some help.

 

I'd like to stick with you all on the 12" wheel side of things. 

 

The issue in my findings on here is that I'm trying to find the wheel and offset I'm looking for, along with the arches, to see how it looks. But a lot of posts that come close, haven't included what wheel they used, et (offset) sizing of the wheels, what arches they have, and if they're using spacers to achieve the look being shown in the photo(s). So I had to join up to ask around for additional info. 

 

I don't want to have to use spacers. And I'd rather not have to bump up to 13's. But will have to if the 12's aren't up to the challenge of filling out the arches properly. 

 

I'd like the wheel and tyre combo to fill out the arches close-to-flush with the outer edge of the arches. Wondering how close I can get with the following set up:

MiniLight 6x12 from JBW with a ET-7mm (offset), paired with a SportPack body kit from ABS, (which I'm assuming have arches that are similar to the SportPack group 5-6 arches?). And for tyres I was going to go with the Yoko A048R's.

 

Does anyone have this set up? I'd like a visual to see how it looks. Mainly a shot down the side to see how they sit under the arches. But some others as well that show it all off.

 

Even if you don't have the MiniLights, any photos of any other negative offset 12" wheel and tyre combo without spacers would suffice. But please share the info to go along with the photo(s) so I know what I'm dealing with, please.

 

Thanks for any help that you can offer with this.

 

Cheers,

 

-Mark
