McMuttley Posted June 2, 2015 Report Share Posted June 2, 2015 Having replaced the wheels on olde smokey, I have 4 spare silver painted 48 spoke wheels fitted with tyres that would suit as a spare for those that may be having problems fitting something wider. (they fitted in my early 3A fully inflated) Unless Tom advises otherwise, the wheels seem to be in reasonable shape - certainly useful, if only for a short term spare. The tyres are less pretty. 8 year old Camac 165's with 23k on the clock, legal (ish) tread but some odd wear hear and there, but again, if only used as an emergency spare, they should suffice. Before I get Tom to send them down and convert into designer hosepipe holders / plant pots, let me know if you would have an interest in one (or even all four ! of them). Pic taken circa just over 2 years / 3,000 miles ago. Regards Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don H. Posted June 3, 2015 Report Share Posted June 3, 2015 I use a 48-spoke / 155/80-15 as a spare on my car, although the other wheels are 60-spoke / 165/80-15. The rolling circumference isn't that much different and it fits in the compartment relatively well. The regular wheels would be a b*tch to get in and out. These would make a very good spare for someone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
