The Aussie made Superlites (also made in UK) are used on Alpines and
Tigers here.

13x5.5 with the standard offset fits OK, but most use a spacer on the
back wheels to even up the track and fill out the rear guards.

13x6 with standard offset (18mm P) is too deep for the front, they hang
out of the guards (fenders).

We can order them with custom offset, you might like to check if this is
possible in the UK.

Now a question: Are Tiger and *all* Alpine tracks the same (especially
the front)?
Cheers,
Paul.
