13 Inch wheels

No need to do anything to fit 8 inch rims to a non superlight chassis.

I have a set of 13x10 inch wide rims on the rear running avon slicks, these
fitted no problem just got to sort out the offset when you order them.

With all this talk of rim widths, it begs another question I have had on 
my mind recently....

I see Caterham are now selling the minator rim in 7" but with a black 
centre.

I'd like to increase the width of my rear tyres and I have only 6" rims at 
present. One potential problem I think I might have is that the wider rims 
seem to be a slightly different offset and cannot be used when you have 
the rear ARB in the upper mounting position, correct? Or is there a wider 
rim that can be used with this setup.  IIRC the wider rims have been used 
on superlight chassis, with the ARB in the lower position...

So what do I have to do to fit a 7 or 8 inch rim to the rear of my 
non-superlight chassis?

PS Snow melting over here so I *might* just get the Se7en and its new 
gearbox out shortly .-)))))))))))))
