AFAIK, (Jan will confirm if she finds this)

Mutant runs 14x6 inch rims with standard japanese 4x100 stud pattern.
A custom wheel spacer with 8 holes mounts the rims to the stock hubs,
and ride height is slightly above normal.

Guards need to be cut and have large arches fitted like sportpacks or group 5-7's.
Tyres prolly arent cheap either.

supposedly those wheels have he same rolling diameter as any 13 inch rims as the tyres are very low profile

Depends how wide the rim is. 13's come in: 5.5s, 6, 7, 8.
You can also have a slightly wider, or thinner tyre on any given rim as well.

That`s a set of 15 inch wheels on a moke

I`m not a fan of "HUGE" wheels on minis tho

they loose their wonderfull light willing dancing feeling & turn into a heavy handed drag around bag of puss

just my opinion tho
