perkins_gl Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 Hi All Finally resolved the issue. The minilites do fit straigh out of the box with no need for grinding or spacers. Unfortunately the companythat manufacture them made a mistake with mine and a couple of other orders and sent me the MG version instead. The MG version is different in offset by 8mm hence they don't fit. I spoke to Russ and he immediately sent out the correct set and they are now on my car and look great. Thanks to all of you for your advice and help with this. George Quote Link to post Share on other sites

perkins_gl Posted September 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 15" ? I assume me wheel size!! In which case yes. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tom Fremont Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 I thought MGs had 14" wheels ( MGB at least ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ron Posted September 14, 2006 Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Tom The MGB had 14" wheels as standard but 15" Minilites are a popular mod to enable low profile tyres to be fitted and retain the same rolling circumference, the MGC had 15" wheels as standard but had a unique 5 bolt pattern.

perkins_gl Posted September 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 14, 2006 Hi Tom Ron is spot on. The 15" minilites fit my wife's MGB GT, which has 14" wheels as standard. Cheers George Quote Link to post Share on other sites
