Hi I'm new to the forum,

 

I've had a Cooper for the last 3 yrs, one of the last as year 2000.  I've had sills and floor pans replaced and now want to get the wheels refurbished and new tyres as they are over 15 yrs old.

 

Has anyone got some spare wheels I can either buy or borrow so I can use them just for the time the wheels are off being repaired?  I've looked on ebay etc, but no luck at present.  I'm in Surrey.

 

Also, where best to get decent quality new carpets?

 

Thanks,

Darran

Wheels - ask a local mini specialist if you have one (i borrowed a set of spare 10" for a week of a garage near me free of charge)

I've contacted the only place I know which I used for some work before, and they do have two 10" wheels which I can use on the rear, so worst case will be able to do two wheels at a time if I don't find some for the front

Darran - I have a set of 4 4.5 x12 off my 2000 Cooper that should become free shortly. Tyres (145/70) are old and different on each axle.

PM me if still interested, I’m in West Sussex.
