I took off my rear wheel last night (at home in sunny Reading, had a 15minute no-rain window), no spacer on the rear wheel although you should get some extended studs.

Mine has 6 spoke Granny alloys !! And guess what, it's got no wheel centres. My thoughts were to get a set of Granny wheel centres and cut a suitablely sized hole in them, I was then going to try to get some sort of cap ie maybe from a spray can and slip it through the new hole, thus making a comple...

Which Hi-Top Glue/Sealant ???

Hi, upon inspecting my Hi-Top I noticed that there are sections where the glue /sealant have perished and in particular along the front edge, which is always good when we're having a typical English summer!!!

Can anyone suggest the best stuff to use ?

Cheers

Window Rubber Profile ???

Hi, can anyone tell me what profile window rubber I need for the 2 rear side windows ?

I'm thinking that the glass is probably 6mm and the bodywork is probably 1.5mm. Pretty sure they are standard.

Any suggestions as to who can supply it at the right price ?

All thoughts appreciated.

Thanks
Brett
