Hey,
I've just been looking at some rally specials from jbw ( http://www.midlandwh...al-4x101.6.html ) 6" wide, i was just wondering if anyone have any pics of 6" wide wheels on a mini?

I've got the same dimension wheels as you, also from midland wheels. 6 months of driving through rain, salt and snow and they're still looking nice despite what others will tell you about the company :) not alleycats like yours but it might help

Never heard of this problem, is it common? (slightly off topic but it's getting me worried...)

I'm pretty sure all four wheels and tyres are circles so I'm sure I'll sleep easy tonight, just wondering what this is about

On some Midland 6x10 wheels the tyre fitting well was in the centre of the rim instead of offset making it impossible to fit tyres without damaging them......
