Jordon T Posted July 9, 2013 Share Posted July 9, 2013 Hillman Imp had them also, However all of the cars listed seem to have a PCD of 4" rather than the PCD of 3' 3/4" used on our cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSpeedy Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 I'm not aware of anything on 'our' pcd in 12", but if you're really keen, then hub re-drillng or pcd adaptors will probably be your only solution Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stu 1986 Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 That video is pretty cool! Perhaps the mysterious 12" wheels hunt is a cheap way of lowering the car? I've seen it done before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bxbodger Posted July 13, 2013 Share Posted July 13, 2013 I have 6 or 7 or so 315mm steels sat behind the shed, not 12" but close enough for jazz.......a few even have useable(ish) tyres on, but I can't guarantee current tyre availabilty for them...p.s....massive offset so only really useable on old metro hubs ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
