Has anyone ever done this? I know thw issue with the brakes and so on, but what would it look like lowered to the deck with 10x7's?

Any thoughts?

I am planning something similar with mine, but will probably go for 10x6 split rims.

It'll look similar to a miglia racer, but I think the sports pack arches will look too big. There is also a mod you can do on the rear arches to get it sitting nice and low.

They'll look lost unless you drop it right down.

There are much better arches available for the 10" wheel. Euro 2's perhaps?

Perhaps the best arches for a 10" wheeled Mini are the original works 'group 2' arches which carry the chrome trim over the wheel arches. Sprayed in body colour they look great. Classic image as well.
