TR4A wire wheel size


Recommended Posts

Hi Guys,

I have a new set of 4 MWS 5.5 x 15, 72 spoke painted wire wheels. 

According to the Moss catalogue, these are suitable for a TR4A and TR5/6.

MWS states in their catalogue they advocate a fitment check as this size may protrude outside of the wings. 

As I do not wish to shorten my wheel studs and want the option of using the original steel wheels also, and would therefore need to use spacers, this seems to be the case. I'm not sure anyway that using 185/70 tyre recommended for this size of wheel would look too wide for a TR4/5.

I assume that a 4.5 x 15 will be the better size?

Any comments would be appreciated.

Thanks 

Rich

Yes especially as you plan to use spacers.
My choice would be as Triumphs was 165 x 15 on 4.5 inch rims.
 

Incidently think I have some spacers from back in the days I ran wires,
