What size wheels for a mk1?
Hi,
I am looking for a new set of alloys for my mk1 mex. It is standard arched with 2" lowering blocks at the back, standard width axle. Most of the tuning guides I have seen suggest a 6" width wheel as a maximum, yet I see a lot of magazine cars with 13x7's with 175/50x13 tyres??
Is this wheel/tyre combination going to clear the arches, and is the rim width/tyre size safe?, it seems a bit stretched for a 175 tyre on a 7" rim. I am after a set of minilights/compotive ml's/ superlites if anyone has a set stashed away.
Cheers
Wayne.
