6x12's :thumbsup:

Yeah, looks great. What wheels have you got on there? The only 6x12s I can find after a bit of scouting this morning are some starmags or revolutions! If I'm going to do it, chrome revs might be the way forward.

I have always liked the wide look on minis so let me know how it drives!
