13 inch wide wheels from morris minor???

[singleton]

I have been offered a set of 13inch wide steel wheels that a bloke at work took off his morris minor a few years ago, obviousley they are not the wider minor van wheels as all morris minor wheels were 14inch, I believe they may be from a austin a30/35? Does anyone know if they ever did a wider austin wheel? they dont look like belted wheels and they defo came off his old morris minor. Does anybody see any problem with fitting 13inch wheels? Has anyone got a picture of a minor with 13inch wheels fitted? I have no picture as of yet, I am awaiting that

I run my Traveller on 13 in wheels with 175/80/13 tyres. The circumference is only a little greater than 155 x 14s. You need to check that the insides of the front tyres do not foul the suspension and the outsides do not touch the wheel arches on full lock.
You will not get a 175x13 tyre in the spare wheel space[frame][/frame][frame][/frame]

had them on my splitscreen looked odd and had to tap the flange on the bottom of the front wings to stop rubbing on full lock,put them back on 14 about 5 years ago,shame I did'nt take a photo of the old set up,might not look so bad on later models with the deeper rear wings
