Thanks for the offer guys, but I don't live in the UK.

I'll give it a try when I find the time!

This is a tough one, you need low grip, skill, and balls. Good luck!

I have 4 x 16" A048R rear tyres that are on the wear markers FOC if anyone needs them.

Would need to arrange to collect from the Bedford area.

I plan on taking the Atom drifting. Did anyone take the Atom to a drift day? How was that?

I have some old 205/16s lying around from another car. I'm thinking of buying some cheap rims to put the tires on and demolish. What size are the standard rear rims?
Paul,

A STANDARD rear wheel size is 15x7 - However, your car might be fitted with a 16x7 wheel...

have a look at your current rear tyre size... 205 might be a little narrow... If you want some knackered Atom tyre to go drifitng on, weve got plenty of stuff here that isn't road legal anymore off our demo cars that we use for things like autotests etc.

Would love to hear how you get on drifting in the Atom and whether the engine layout makes it tricky. I've only ever been drifting in a Caterham and the steering was so predictable. Atom 4 is on order so I've got a while until I can actually try it out! ;D
