If your thinking of going anything over 13" wheels id say the guards will definatly have to be cut, i have 13 x 7 performance superlites on mine and to get them to not hit the car had to be jacked right up or the guards had to be cut

yeah.. I figured as much. Thinking of fitting sports pack arches in which case the guards have to be cut back anyway.

Has any one had any experience with fitting Moke trailing arms on a normal mini?

Doesn't work. The arm is longer than the Mini item, so it puts the wheel closer to the rear of the vehicle.

yeah I know the arm is longer.. but is it so long that if I fit like 14" or 15", I would have to cut the arch so much the tyre actually sticks out of the back of car?

Cheers

Best bet would be to go to a mini run and ask a 13" wheel moke owner to park beside a mini and compare the measurements (wheel center to subframe front etc ) between them and see what's possible .

yeah.. that would be the beat way I reckon.. Thought of making up a mock wheel with card board or something so I can adjust the offset and see what fits and doesnt fit.. might work :wink:
