Thanks :blink:

Is it possible to get the tyres so that they sidewalls are not as big (because from the other 10" wheels i have the tyres make them near enough the same size as a set of 12" wheels that i have got)

they are supposed to be the same size from edge of tyre to edge of tyre regardless of whether you are on 10s or 12s as far as i know - this is because if you change the circumference you will need to change the speedo drive to one that accurately translates to your speedo - or getting the speedo recalibrated will do the same job. This is the same for all cars not just minis.
