Sounds like you should measure height as well then you can see if one stacked above the other on a short 2 poster would fit. Might have to go for a Speedster though. stirpot grin2

Just for fun...

2009 Roadster S2 on 16" wires, 205 x 45 profile tyres.

Exactly 30cm, both sides.

So a Roadster on alloys is 'the same' as a Plus 4 on wires, as I suspected. Hmm.

I'm quite taken at the moment with MINI Volcano Orange. There are quite a few MINIs around like this as it's a non metallic no cost option, but I'd like to see it next to Sport Yellow.

I'm not changing yet, just making very provisional plans. Persuading MrsW will be the challenge so it won't be for a year or two but speccing up a new car is so appealing.

If MMC come up with an 80th 4/4 Anniversary with "180"bhp I could be tipped over the edge quite easily.

It would have to have a spare wheel and none of this racing themed frippary.
BUT temptation is a dangerous mistress.
