Thank you black-hawk & his little helper
Thanks Jarvis for doing such a great job on my wheels mate, it has transformed the look of the car.
Also a big thanks to Ryan for taking the wheels and then bringing them back to me, 4 wheels in the mx5 was quite a squeeze mate :-)
I'm glad you rang me about the colour I chose lol
It's great having mates on here who are willing to help each other out ...
Mark ...

This is how far the wheels were inside the arch ....
i bought front brembo grand turismo brakes which ian and ryan kindly gave up a sunday morning to fit them,all went well until the wheels would not clear the calipers..so it was either new wheels or spacers ....new wheels was more expensive so went the cheaper option..
The wheels come out to the arch much better..
I had a little mis-hap monday evening and curbed the n/s front alloy and thats where jarvis and ryan come in to it
i'm very pleased with the outcome, my youngest boy come up this morning and thought they were new wheels lol.....

I don't know what size the studs are on the original hub or the size of the studs on the spacer ...
The 20mm is the spacer width ..

Looking good Mark, did the boy tell you I put 32psi all round, I see you've put the khumo's on the rear, be prepared for some opposite lock action...., and I'm sooo glad I didn't go with your choice of metalic avacardo.
