Hi

Im selling my winter wheels here in sweden. they are 12X5 ultra lights. I need to sell them so i remove the temptation to drive the mini in the winter!

im about to advertise them, but thought i would cast my net a bit further (not so many minis here) if i knew which other cars these wheels mit fit on?

Im thinking mg midgets etc

Cheers

Midgets need 13" to clear trackrod ends on front suspension. IIRC, that only leaves imps and morris minors on the 4 x 4" PCD, minors run 14s, guessing 12" will be too small. Imps - not sure, maybe they might be able to run 12", mostly seen them on 13" though. Minis by far the most used of the lot :)

VWs have similar fitment to minis so they may fit on depending on the offset, we tried some one a friends polo on college and they fitted if thats any help?

I'm pretty sure Reliant Robins can have 12x5 Minilites fitted to their rear axle?
