ultralite wheels (13x8)?
ultralite wheels (13x8)?
Will this fit on a 2000 sportpackage mini with factory flares without rubbing?
I believe the existing sport wheels from factory are 13x6 or 13x7?
Where can I purchase this in the states and what tire sizes would you guys recommend? Thank you!

Before you buy the rims, make sure you can get tires to fit. There are fewer & fewer manufacturers of 13" tires anymore. About the last (and a good one) is Sumitomo. But an 8" rim amy be too much for their 175-45/13s. Wider may only be available in race tires.
Also, clearance will depend on what the offset is on the 13x8's.
For rims look for Superlites or Ultralites. http://www.superlite-wheels.com/wheelpage.asp?cat=1

I have 13x8 Minilites on mine. The tire size you will need is 195/45R13. The are on the expensive side. I know you can get them from www.gbcarparts.com. I had to cut out quite a bit out of the wheel arches including the A-panel to keep them from rubbing. But I also used hi-lo's and lowered the car a little bit.
