Yeh, I know it's too big. That's why I need the Hi-lows. It's just... it's just...

Shouldn't have bought those buggers in the first place, wasn't part of the budget. 7.5k later I need to for out anoter 1.?k just so they fit... FFS! :(

R650 from Dez's Mini. Another R600 or so to install. Think I'll take it to him, and get my windscreen done at the same time. He's got brand new ones for R750

Does not sound too bad ... remember this is a once off cost, that is also a upgrade on your suspension.

I asked Dez the weekend if he does the radiator conversion. He looked at me and asked "When you have a headache, what do you do? You take a pill, you don't change your head. Putting in those front golf radiators is a lazy mechanic's job."

My 225/40/ZR18s were cheaper than that.
 
The bullnose minis look so much better. These things feel like go karts on the road, you can take corners at speeds
