Really happy that I found some wheels to fill the arches nicely which are the group 2 st arch. 
 

10x6 Minators which have an et6 offset. I’m running 7.5 discs and spaced rear drums, I did have a small 5mm spacer on the back and will experiment with pitting them back on but running spaced rear drums anyway.  

slight slope on the drive so the car is a bit higher than on the flat. Wheel does tuck 8n a bit more.

Very nice!
As a matter of interest, where did you get your arches from? They look very similar in width and style to my 35 year old Minispares ones which have had numerous repairs.

Great looking Mini, the wheels and stance look spot on.

Thank you

 

We got these when the car was re shelled in 2005 and I think they are the MiniSpares Group 2 ST arches as they are only 2.25 wide at the front.  Think they are still available
