the guy is going them on the side... so it's taking aaaaages! I've given him until the end of the year or I'm pulling the plug.

I was going to use standard front wheels, but they don't fit over the brakes

sorry not been online for an age!

the wheels were going to need a crazy offset to miss the callipers with them being so chunky. The BTCC rims are only 17" but after measuring the offset compaired to standard straights there was 60mm of difference!!!!

A new hub is currently being made up with a centre stud assembly, so I can still use the centrelock wheels I already have

Pete that would be ideal dude, any media is greatly appreciated!
