It was pretty shiny underneath all that crap so wil...

Re: Newbie question
Thanks guys, hmm not sure about the strengthening bits been fitted to my laser, so what tyres do I put on the 7.5 x 13's ? Thanks Hi, Danny's got 175/60 on his and they look great.

Re: Newbie question
I've just fitted the 7.5J 13" wheels no problems, check my thread on the members car page if you like, fills out the arches a treat!
The 7J 15" wheels also fit fine, seen them on many a capri at events
