    another axle question (wheels)

    have fitted a 52"atlas in me MK2, the rs prop bolted straight on, the wheels now are 1 inch out side of arches, have found that early sierra 13"wheels fit on and they fit under the arches nicely,
    So now i have two superlights on the front and some silly sierra wheels on the rear to keep it unarched, any suggestions on what wheels i should get, or can i get some superlights that will fit.

    I think you'd be better off having it shortened mate, think you've been lucky to get any wheels underneath a mk2 with that axle on it at all.

    I have a narrow capri/baby atlas axle casing and 3 shafts for sale if you're interested. Its been shortened to 49" and had the saddle brackets/tramp bars/panhard rod bracket/diff nose moved correctly to fit an escort. PM me if you're interested.

    Thanks

    might get away with a fwd offset, ask a mate with decent wheels to let you try one?
