old minis are 4x4" which is 4x101.6
7s and 175/50s is always a winner

Also could i run those 101.6mm on my MK2? would i need wobble bolts?

Apparently you can use wobble bolts, but never had any experience with them myself. You would also need some spigot rings because mini center bore is considerably bigger than VW

Unfortunately my MK2's rear arches apparently won't take 7J ET25
"Apparantly" what u reckon?

Indeed, but if WildChild has a set that were manufactured for a mini, I expect they will have a mini PCD and centre bore... hence spigots are needed.

Get Starlites, they're like starmags but they have the dish of superlites (2 inches!!!) they're always advertised in Mini magazines. You will need wobble bolts and spigot rings to fit Mini wheels to your car. When I put my Ultralites (Mini fitment) on my Mk1 I had to buy some Honda spigot rings and re-machine them myself so that they would fit my car/wheels, I had to buy some wobbly bolts off ebay, and I also had to get 6mm spacers at the front and grind 5mm off the caliper carriers!!!! But I reckon mine have an offset of -1 or something silly like that!
