The box is brilliant totally different car I am in top at 45 km's preforms stright from cold and it don't dump oil all over my drive, which makes Sonia a very happy bunny been using the car but it sounds a bit like a wasp f**ting in a tin can (manifold) But I know a very nice chap who has solved that problem for me Graham

if your using 5mm spacers will the wheel studs still be long enough to come through the wheel,and if your pushing the wheel out will it then rub on the arches ?

[stagmuffin]

My Minilites centres don't clear the front hubs so I added 5mm spacers, now they do, 5mm is very little to lose from the studs and the nuts grip perfectly. Will that do grasshopper ?

If your car wasn't the Holy Grail you wouldn't 'arf get some stick for that one !

Hello all,

om my Stag I use alloy wheels from Appliance Industries (USA). They were made in the 1970s with that typical "Wolfrace Mag Slot" design.

The technical data are as follows: Appliance Industries, Harbour City, California (« Wolfrace »-Design) 6x14, ET +19, LK: 4x114,3 mm.

Best wishes,
Dieter.
