Picked up a pair of 16x7 pursuit rims to fit VE with this offset I should be able to lose the wheel spacers and get the rims under the rear quarter without rolling and the 225 tyre.

Good score Neil. Do you know the offset? Looks big positive.

Not an unusual offset for a Conformadore. A lot of the pre-VE stuff was +43P.

Cheers,
