is this seriously your next car or just a stop gap?


This is the best its going to get car wide for me. Recently split up wit the missus, so i'm now single with a mortgage and bills to to pay aswell as running a car and bike. I needed some thing cheap to run and this is it. At £10-£15 a week in fuel and £17 per month insurance its perfect. I'd prefer to have a nice bike and a crap car then a nice car and a crap bike.

Update: 12/11/08

Today my Superlites arrived at last! My new tyres also arrived! I bout the wheels last week, but due to a colossal mess up by the courier firm, they've arrived today!

Here they are (with the worlds worst centre caps ever!) Fronts are 13 x 5.5 rears 13 x 8





Nankang ditch finders! £22 each! Another credit crunch bargain!



Just off to trial fit them now!

Banded steels would have cost £300 plus the tyres. These cost £180 plus the tyres.....

Anyway, here's some trial fitting. The rears might be a little too wide, but that can be sorted by either some camber or a bit of arch rolling.The inside of the rears has 1-2mm of clearance from the stub axle, so no chance of machining the wheels down. The fronts are spot on! Not i can play with the height and get the ultimate stance of tuck up front and poke at the rear!
