Hello every one i'm just after some information on my steels/ style advise?  

 

i have a 1990 mini may fair and when i brought it , it came with these wheels which are 13 x 5.5 s dose any one now if these are standard mini wheels or off a different car as it seems a unusual size to me ??

 

Also do you think i should have them banded or just reversed or both? i currently have group 2 wide arches  with  6 x 12  superlites with 10 mil spacers on front)  so what would you recommend if so what tires ?

 

also some color options would be nice. my Minis diamond white out side and i have a blue/ black interior ?

What does the tyre say it should be something like 165/40/10 but specific for those wheels these are my steelies
Also in the width photo the Tape measure is about 1/2 inch over hanging on the far side

Same size as mine they measure 13ish but are 12s I reckons photoshop a few colours in I like your little tag with blue centres and white walls if you afford to try out on combination on one wheel and see what it looks like that's what I did I have group 2 rally arches

thanks for the heads up Jack  ! very true measure 13 but when i put them up against my 6 x 12 superlights their similar size weird! will do will give them a good clean first then photo shop the back off them to see what they look like blue/ white  thanks again

I thought it was the same with these



But they were actually 14" I think it's because it's measured from the inside edge or something

Those are standard 12x4.5 steels, normally fitted with 145/70 r12 tyres.
