Raceline wheeles

i seen a mini mag just the other day but i forget what one it was, it had an orange mini with starmag raceline wheeles 7x13, i was on the site but i dont think ill find them there, i was just wondering if anyone else seen them and would know where i could get them,

Mega Modz (previously MegaMini) is the only place they are available, i have just bought a set, iirc i think i payed £330 for the wheels with nuts and locking nuts & delivery.

The no is 01527 877775

They won't fit a 16v Mini, unless it retains the Mini hubs, and track though.

right just to confirm, is it the wheeles that are on the orange mini in the mini mag thats still on sale? can you get me a pic posted on her so i can see them, or email me on tomazz5@hotmail.com, Thanks

not sure how to post a picture but i think there is a picture of a car with them on in the gallery, not sure where, in the events section i think, they are a six spoke design anyway and yes they are the ones on the orange mini in mini mag

star mags aren't they? Megamodz have them at £525 for complete set, including wheel nuts and stuff.

thats them!!!! thanks for getting me the pic and all, just one more thing, is the number above the only way of contact? or is there a web site or anything else?

there isn't a URL in the magazine i found the advert in, and an internet search came up with nothing. either they don't have a website, or they keep it well hidden! if you are unsure about ringing the number, then pick up this months mini magazine and have a look at the advert, so then you know who you're talking to.

as pervoiusly stated, a company called Mega Modz (if you do ring them up, could you let them know that they have a spelling mistake in their name :lol: )

Hey just thought i would let u all know im getting me wheels before the weekend, but i have i few little questions, will they go straight on with out any probs? awww and will i need new arches because i have the little black ones that come standard with the mini? if anyone could help that would be great, Thanks

The wheels will fit straight on the rear of the car providing you have the post 84(i think) rear drum with the inbuilt spacer or if you have a cooper s, if not you will need a spacer, 3/8" should do (dependant on your dampers).
The fronts will need the leading edge of the arch cut away to make room for them. It is a simple procedure and is covered in one of the minimags. Basically cut away the metal and leave about 10-15mm so you can form a new lip to put the strenght back into the wing.
Probably some pictures in the gallery, oh and you will need to change at your arches as the new wheels will stick out too far from the bodywork.
If your lowering the car a lot you may wasnt to "tub" the rear arches as i have done
Hope this helps

Hey got the wheele and arches and there all on, its sitting to high at the back, what should i do to lower it? if anyone could let me know that would be great,

you either need a set of hi-lo's or cut the trumpets the required amount.

Just move the arches down the shell :-)
