The white one at the TDCIR was a Tolly with a Dolly front end. Nicely done as well. Sadly I can't recall the numerous other mods but the owner and his mate were pretty sound.

This was a quick chop of Ford/Lotus steels with the chrome caps, as seen on some Lotus' (Loti?).....I thought it looked great! Uncertain about fitting properly, mind....

I think I found the right PCD eventually but centre bore was out, possibly...

Would TR6 wheels fit? they're 15" as well aren't they?

Different PCD. 112mm?

Indeed, they're more like 114.3 mind.

They're 4x4.5". And don't fit, at all, I've tried

Thats a fine looking machine Mr Tin. Is that your blue sprint in the background as well?

I think Minilites look good on most cars.

They really transform the look of Toledos and low spec Dollys.

If you can find alloys for a 1300 FWD (they did exist) I know a certain Mr. Jones who'll be very interested

Ta David. Yeah that's the '78 sprint trying to hide.

I hate Minilites. Just a personal thing, it's the ultimate cop-out 'klassic' wheel.

(Mind you the genuine RSP ones that should've be on the car look better (they're in the boot!)

I think certain minilites look good on Dollies... take these 15's for example...

I got a bargain on some lovely Revolutions (6 x 14):

So what if they rub the arches - they look good!!

I'm getting some 13x7 6 spoke Wellers. For my Tr7...

I had some great looking compomotives which I bought on ebay. They sort of looked like BMW cross-spoke wheels of the 80's.

Meant for a TR7 they were. Bolted on fine, but I couldn't remove the jack from under the car! Completely the wrong offset.

Mental note, don't bid on TR7 wheels. They fit, but they don't fit, if you know what I mean.
