"In your face" to whom ever said that MX5s are useless in rough terrain?

Seriously, I think about doing that to mine from time to time. It would make it much more useful for me.

Just thinking further ... I have some old 15x6.5 Sprint Harts in the shed. Fitting a set of something like 205/70R15s on those would give me an extra 50mm in sidewall height, then raise the suspension by around 50-100mm and I'll have 200-250mm of ground clearance, plus amazing cred at the Moruya Agricultural Show. :D
