I think the sledge hammer is the way forward on this :lol:

They look bigger than 14" but have a nice width , my alloys are 6J probably a good job i didnt get wider ones then or i would be opting for the sledge hammer :P

You only need two tools in life: WD-40 and Duct Tape. If it doesn't move and it should, use WD-40. If it moves and shouldn't, use the duct tape.

Pictures can be deciving Mark, dads is a rot box, rusty arche's & back doors, non-runner, hole in the chassis, not worth saving as it'll need a complete overhall :(
Its now used as a shed. It does'nt even go on the road and it still got
rusty. The only clean bit is under the bonnet which was waxoiled.

8" :shock: Taking into account the thickness of the edges you would need at least 235 tyres to go on them to make sure the wheel doesnt stick out beyond the tyres :shock:

Put some spacers on there too and it will be nearly as wide as it is long :lol:
