Mmm... it was more of a flaff than I thought. The lager spacer puts the rear wheel out too far and it catches on the wheel arch and the smaller spacer means that the bolts are catching on the back of the drum so I need to get the grinder at em tomorrow!
But it's really worth it as the wheels are huge and really make the handling!
Looks dead butch from the back with the 185 cross section!

no grind bolts, take them to a place with a lathe, cost me only £5 for mine to be done and that got all Nice ends so no worry about cross threading

Would love to see more pics, particularly ones from dead-on in front and behind the car.

Looking good, but for some reason, I don't think the roof bars work with the sun roof. They looked great with the tin top, but with the webasto.. hmm, it just looks a bit strange.
Anyway: spacers, spacers, spacers. I really ought to get off my arse and get my alloys back on. What width/offset are the Turbo ones and what width spacers did you end up fitting? I definitely need to push mine out at the back, didn't encounter any problems with the front ones so might only need two. Although it may make the handling interesting with different tracks front and rear...
Cheers,

I believe the Uno wheels have an offset of around -42 and they're 5.5 inches by 13. Looks like Jim's using 10mm spacers on the back.
Despite passing on their faffery to Jim I still want some super wide wheels, some of the Alfa wheels are quite tempting... But I'm gonna wait and see how the job situation etc works out first.

I think it's cause there is too much add on's on the roof and none any where else... Mmmm... Front and rear bull bars may even it up, lol!
