theres also the option of different brke conversions. I bought a minisport brake kit which will let me have 10" but the disks are 7.9" in diameter. Theres also a conversion that uses the calipers off mk1 fiesta or

a new conversion that ive just heard of which uses the hubs on drum brakes and honda civic floating calipers, turned down civic disks on special brackets.

No, I think you'll need Group 2 wides. A 6x12 under Miglia arches will need mega spacers, which aren't safe at all. Besides, 6x12 won't need Cooper S discs as the 8.4" setup from Minis made from 1984 onward will do the job fine, and are cheaper.

ill just get 13x7 but the smalll wheel gives a better mini miglia look

what sort of mods do you need to do to fit 6 by 12s on a standard mini, people are telling me that you have to go hacking away at the bodywork , which im not to happy doing.
