We've taken an extended break from rallying due to marriage, house and job moves etc, my life getting in the way basically.Things are now settling down so thoughts have moved to recommissioning the car.
Should be a simple task, either a gearbox rebuild to fix some synchros or a new box, whichever works out most cost effective.
Now I've got a quick question for you guys.
Will 13in wheels fit over standard aw11 front brakes?
Does anyone have any 4x100, 13x6-8, et20-40 wheels lying around that they could test fit on the front of a mk1 before I go blindly into bidding on wheels?
Yes the car well look strange with 15s up front and 13s on the back but with the correct tyres the gearing will be shortened by over 10% and our choice of rubber will be much improved and cheaper.Win win.
Any help much appreciated(pics if possible).

Ideally(and if the CWP fit in the case) we'd be after a 5.6 final drive ratio.
Which on 23in dia tyres would give us the following gearing:-
1st- 30
2nd- 46
3rd- 64
4th- 81
5th- 103
6th- 115mph at 7750rpm.
