Kevin, in your piece about wheel pcd, that is locked, can you add the facts about mgf wheels please?

Hi Les can you tell me what the facts are

Post by **les** » Tue Dec 18, 2007 10:25 pm

No!! I want to know. I thought you'd have them.

What about em? they have a 3.75" PCD (92.75mm i think) generally in 15" alloy, although 16" is avaliable and some used 14" steels as spares.
The PCD is correct for marina setups, and will apparently fit on marina equiped minors with spacers on the front to clear the trunnions, however different wheels have different offsets, the 16" are generally more offset to clear bigger brakes

Im using 14" steel montego wheels on my trav with marina setup

hope thats of use

Right no point in adding them to the wheel pcd thread.

Yes thanks Matt, I thought I heard from somewhere that they fitted Minors,------but it seems not!

Kevin, sorry if I have offended you.

I didnt think you had

, I just thought you might have had some info that I didnt know about.

Fair enough

Matt has already said that.
And the sticky is for standard PCD`s only not modified otherwise all PCD`s would have to be listed for all modifications which the sticky is not about.

Well - maybe a case for a second sticky ?

For What section

Bringing this back onto the topic of 'Minor Wheels' (as opposed to potential conversions) has anyone tried Mini wheels?

I watched a set of minilites go for peanuts the other day on ebay because I was worried about the offset.
On my Minor the steel wheels are very close to the top trunnions as standard and I dont fancy using big spacers.

I know you can get minilites for MGs and Minors specifically but they're always loads'a'money.

for wheel PCD info: http://www.retro-rides.com/wheels.asp compares and finds vehicles with the PCD you're after.
