6J is the widest you can go without rolling the arch, 15" will just fit but you'll have fouling issues on large quantites of lock.

 it doesn't matter if it's a Morris Marina or a Toyota Celica - it's what you do with it that counts  |

How did minilites get past the swear filter?! ;D There's loads of wheels out there! No need for minilites  Still, it's all a matter of personal taste innit?!  |

Minilites in a gold centre polished lip Watanbe (sp?) stylee could work. Or could look w*nk. |

Russ, what is the 'theme' or 'look' that you're going for here?
i think it would be better if you told all and got some pics up then we can all be constructive and help you.
i like minilites, but only on the right looking car. Put it this way, minilights and that god aweful steering wheel you like don't work together imo

wide enough they can look evil  Can always do the centres black for a change too! EDIT: agree with Keefy and the confused RRers we now need to put all this into perspective! |

MrB, I think that picture was a superlite, i did put 'minilites' in the search though. Not sure i can tell the difference, but i know i don't like superlites in 15 inch flavour the spokes look too short, you need compomotives or konigs etc then.  |

Minilites have round spokes and the Superlites have peaked ones. I'd say the ones pictured are Supers...that's why they look good!
