Minilite Wheels
Hi everyone, I am looking to get a nice set of deep dish style mini lite wheels in the ford 5 bolt pattern. I am putting the preform resources flares on my car and have stock width 8.8 ford rear end and stock width fast cars front suspension. I am looking to really fill out the wheel wells as much as possible as well as trying to find a company that makes a nice set of wheels. If anyone could give me recommendations on the widest wheel/tire combo they believe I can run and also where to purchase them it would be greatly appreciated. I preferably want a 15" diameter wheel.

I have a set of VTO Retro 15 x 7 with 0 offset (from Hap). I daresay he can get the Silverstones with a 0 offset. There are no old school deep dish rims available off the shelf so if that's what you want you either get them made or find something used.

Re: Minilite Wheels
Here are two options for similar wheels, the offset on the first ones are 8 mm so will push the wheel out 5/8 inch over a normal MGB offset, the second ones do not give the offset other than "various offsets available" Bear in mind that altering the offset will affect steering effort and stress on wheel bearings. Also bear in mind that you would pay about 16% less than the advertised prices due to there being no VAT to pay on exports so about £315 ($425) shipping to the USA with DHL $170 for a 4 day delivery. I have no affiliations to either company.
