Smaller point of contact, better mpg :D
This is what it's wearing these days:-
OK, you're right, and given that snow, those narrow tyres might have been better for grip too. The amount of offset does make a big difference to the looks of a Midas, though! 8-)

MrBounce, Do I need to mention I have a pair of Renault 14 mirrors (attached some white doors) haha.
I've got bullet mirrors on mine, but the chrome rusts within 12-18months, sure I could polish it back, but I think I may change for something that won't!

California Mirrors are quite a common sub:

A bit cheaper from Europa:

I'm quite tempted to try these. Must find out if they're flat or convex

Those mirrors are flat. Got them on my convertible but to be honest they're crap, hardly any adjustment in them
