Old Mini Wheels

[Tom Messy]

A quick forum search didn't turn much up, so I thought I'd better ask...

Seen some cheap, probably quite run-down Mini wheels on eBay, and thought a restoration job on a set would look quite good on a Micra. Just mentioned it to my dad, and he had the thought of would there be any mechanical modifications necessary for them to fit OK? Or would they just look silly without lowering the car?

OK, thanks. I was looking at a variety of sizes. 10-12" diameter, but not sure on widths etc.
