They sound good. Yea That seems a decent price, if they need new tyres.

The car will look odd with smaller wheels on front than back. The 14" are certainly worth having - the 13" very much less so. But £80 is probably ok provided they are not damaged on the rims - or horribly rusted on the back.

i think they give a good stance on a rodded Morris, they need refurbishing but there not to rusty

i would be tempted to go for standard minor wheels on the front, and the wide 14's on the rear.

13's don't do it for me!

they will look good mate i used to have wide 14 on teh back and wide 13 on the front they was 185 by 13 and 195 by 14 on the back of my traveller look great well i and meany other thought so as well but do remember you will lose a little bit of clearonce on the front but you should be ok with speed bumps ect and getting them for £80 good very good price

The 13s are the same as I have fitted to my Traveller with 175/80/13 tyres. Any wider tyres may touch the top trunnion as there is not a lot of clearance. You will also need 11/16 A/F trailer wheel nuts to hold them on as the hole chamfer is different to the M1000 wheel holes. Also they fit the smaller Series MM hubcaps, with a little bending in of the rim, not the M1000 hubcaps[frame]Image[/frame][frame]Image[/frame]
