yeah they will work but you will need to cut a bit out of the front of your front wheel arches (as i only found out yesterday) i mean not a problem for me as mines fiberglass and a bit of dremel work will solve the problem but could mean metal bending for you :/

also i was warned of catching on the inner wing, again not a problem for me but you might need spacers which arnt good for the drive train.

im already running 5x12 with 165/60 tyres and i just want wider look so i thought staying 12 inch would be better.

You will definitely need to cut and reshape your arches if they are standard at the moment. I've fitted 12x6's with an offset of ET-7 to mine and had to alter the arches quite a bit

yeah i know...but is the handling still good with 6x12?

[Chris_R]

I never drove mine with 5x12's on so can't compare, but it does handle well with the 6x12's

[greensilver mini]

prob isnt much different anyways!

+1 mine handles really well with 6x12s on. I can't tell the difference between them and the standard wheels

they are MWS wheels you had better buy 2 sets as they don't last very long before they turn to dust

don't believe me ? do a search on any car forum for MWS or midland wheels
