    Wheel and tyre sizes

    Please can someone please tell me the wheel and tyre sizes that were fitted to the Marina based Roadster? By wheels, I mean the standard ones (Ribster?) that Marlin often sold with the kit.

    Cheers, Robin

        Robin, if you are going for different alloys watch out for the back depth. The Ribsters were, I believe 89mm, but from experience I've found you can go up to 99mm without interference.
