I'm after 2 wheels size 13 x 6J. I will use 7J on the rear and these are easy to locate but want to use 6J on the front. This is for my hill climb car. If anyone has anything suitable or knows where I can find a pair, please let me know. Thanks

I bought a set of 4 spoke Revolution alloys (7" rear 6" front) . I run 205's on the rear and 185's on the front, from looking at the clearance any wider on the front would rub the wheel arch lip when turning. They got the offset correct without any input from me and were a good price. They make them largely to order and so not lightening quick service. I think the straight lines of the spokes suit the car better than such as Minilites

what offset are you running on the revolution wheels, both front and back and are you using any spacers?

I have to confess that I left that to the guys at Revolution to sort out and they got it spot on. However, I am still using the spacers that came with the original wheels, I assume they are standard Fiat X1/9

Slightly confused with your reply. I thought originally Revolution got offset correct but then you mention using spacers from your standard wheels. Standard wheels should not have spacers? Also, MSA I am told are getting tougher on the use of spacers and may ban or limit the thickness. I just want the wheels made with the correct offset so I will try and speak to the guys at Revolution and see what they say.
