Superlite Wheel Sizes ( yes it's correct spelling and nothing to do with Superlight cars!)

[Tazio]

The original Superlite wheels, circa mid 90s, does anyone know wether they were ever available at sizes bigger thab 6" by 13" ?., if they did I'd love a pair of wider rears.

They certainly did a 13 x 7 Alan because I had 2 . However, when I took them to  BMTR for fitting they refused them because they had had a lot of trouble getting tyres on to them previously. Something to do with super lite adding al the extra width on one side only iirc ....

Thanks Roger much appreciated...at least it means there maybe a pair out there somewhere...lol.

 Can't get into the garage at the mo but iirc I am running some 13x7 mini sport superlight rims (correct spelling) on the front. They were made by kn and are a good match for superlite. Look for those as well?

Again a good shout Roger, cheers O Great One.

Hi,

Indeed Superlite is the correct spelling. Love the looks of those alloys and remember the VX racers on them. I must have a brochure from those days with all the sizes.

I shall look for it, just organizing my spare parts and documentation.

They were certainly available in 7x13 but always look at the ET value since they were also used on other cars, f.i. Escort Mk2. So not every Superlite with Ford fitment will fit a Seven.

Cheers
