Basically, can you buy these? I'm hoping to drop the mini as low as poss without tubbing the rear arches... Running 10x6 wellers.
I had a quick google but couldn't find much, and I don't think I've seen any minis with them on?

Any help much appreciated

you might find trailer tyres but not anything suitable for a mini

Someone somewhere sells them, and that's where my knowledge ends... sorry

are they road or track tyres ?

[Joshwa457]

I really hope somebody can tell me where I can get these!

Good luck finding them, smallest profile is 165/70 or standard 145's
Basically waiting for a lottery wIn so I can pay Dunlop to make some custom tyres

Just a 135 r10 would be amazing so you don't get that horrible bubble look when running standard steelies

I'm gonna sound really stupid and like a right noob, but what is "tubbing the rear arches" and how do you do it? I've gathered it allows you to lower the car further but that about it...

cutting the wheel are and moving it up the body

The rear wheel recess protrudes downwards at the outer edge by about 2", by chopping that out and making it the same level as the inner part you can gain 2" of space for the wheel to travel up into.

 

Or you could run 4" wheels with huge + offset
