Mini Spares C-21A1968 is the 4.5 x 10” wheel which has the original S offset.
In fact, you can fit those without arch extensions if you wish and reduce the risk of rusting around the arch extension screws. Alternative 1.5” Group 2 arches are ok.

1 - That would be a 25mm change per side which would look odd and might invlove touching the shocks at the rear.

 

2 - I have 5x10 GB wheels with offset 14 and they're just inside the arches at the front - helped by some negative camber.  I'm using 19mm spacers at the back on standard drums with longer studs and again they're just inside the arches - again with negative camber.  The rears would be ok with proper 25mm spaced drums but the 6mm difference is unnoticable.

 

3 - nope, no obvious error there - those wheels just need wider arches.

 

Hi, i dont suppose you have any pics with your GB wheels setup?, i can't find any 5x10 wheels with standard special arches?

 

I'm heading towards the minilites which has a offset of ET12, not the best but better

 

thanks

I don't have any photos - i'll see if I can get some this weekend.  That said I'm fairly sure the minilights will be fine for your needs - just imagine the tyres you have inset by 12mm. :proud:
