Sorry to dissapoint ya Tim but an inch is MUCH bigger than you think - evidently!

Who's complaining over 1/2", 12mm, 1.2cm

[Rattler]

Ah - but 1/2" is the difference between the id and od - right????

See this: 180/55 SuperCorsas are recommended for fitment to 5.5 or 6.0in rims!

The lips (its gettin worse ) on the wheel are about 3mm wide from what I remember - it's been so long (even worse )

My std rims ( 3 spoke ally) measure 6+inch ish on the outside width. The magnesium marchesinis measure more than 1/2 inch more. In fact they are not far off 7 inches in total external width. Can't be bothered to measure too accuratley but will if anyone wants the exact figures.

[Rattler]

Stimpy - that's what I mean about the measurements - your 3 spoke brembos would officially be 5.5" and the mags would be 6" - in all probability. That's from the internal diameter measurement (id).

I measured my march-mags when they arrived and the internal measurement was dead on 6"

[Rattler]

When did you get mags????
I thought you were too tight!!!!

[Desmondo]

Bought some off Jasper. Not a case of too tight mate, just the right timing
