Cant make it much clearer than that now can I? They're to fit the matiz, tyres would be good, but not essential. Cheap is also a requirement, as this car really is on a budget. (its a pile of curse word, but I cant own something and not do anything to it) I'm based near OXFORD As I said, they cant be over 14", not below 13". The more dish the better, and I'm allowed to be choosy as I can wait! Wide steels would be the dogs danglies  so, what've you got? |

What about these??  Reliant Scimitar steels, 5.5"x14". Correct 4x114 PCD. Plenty of dish, but 185/50x14's will fit a treat. Obviously those aren't for sale, but a trawl round the bay of E may well prove fruitful....that's where I found those a couple of months ago, and they cost me £25 for all four. ;D |

Cos that could make life easier! The only ones on the bay atm are 15's, will keep a eye out though! carlb1970, they look the dogs danglies, do you suppose 165 tyres will stretch? |

I'm noi expert on tyre stretchage.... but..... the wheels i have now fitted are 14x7. got 205's at the back and 185s on the fron7. there is only slight stretch going on and i want more so i asked the fitter and he reckoned he could get 165's on  gonna go for it when i can afford it. the minilites have tyres fittd at the mo. they are falken 205/60/13 and have prob about 5-600 miles on them are still as new with the colourd band in the tread and the stubbly bits on them. got the tyres before i saw the whole stretchy thing.... reckon these would look ace with the right tyre  |

sounds good to me its just the steels on the matiz have 165's fitted already and they have plenty of tread, no point in forking out for replacement tyres if I can get the existing ones to fit, plus stretch is coooool. (not as if its a fast car) I saw you last said £130 for the minilites, excluding tyres, how much inc? |

much as I'd love them, I'm going to have to pass right now, if I had the money going 'spare' I might well go for it. As it, I'll wait and see if I can do everything for under £100... its a piece of curse word car, so I don't want to go throwing lots of money in there, sorry)
thanks
any more?
