Morris Minor is 4 x 4inch (101.6mm).

100mm will not last long... Though you could get adapters made to do whatever you like!

You MUST NOT use 100mm PCD wheels on a Minor. The studs WILL snap and you will lose a wheel - and end up (at best) in a ditch........

This is a link to the retro roof chop article that was printed in Custom Car Mag.
I appreciate this is an old post but I am new to the forum and the poster may not have seen it.

Hi guys,

I have a slightly strange question, can anyone tell me how large the centre hole in a standard 14in minor wheel is?

I have a teardrop trailer that I tow with my 1967 1200 Herald, unfortunately the holes in the herald wheels I wanted to fit to match the car are only 56mm whereas the stub axles on the indespension units are 64mm in the centre of the hub.The other advantage is that I can get 4in pcd hubs easily from the local trailer centre but not triumph friendly 3 3/4in.

Thanks.

I know that this not a direct answer to your question but if I remember correctly the old type Mini hub will fit the 1" dia Indespension stub axle and the minor wheel will fit the Mini hub.
I have had Mini wheels on my small trailer which is fitted with 4"pcd Indespension units/hubs so by default the Minor wheels should fit the Indespension hubs.
Unfortunatly I do not have a standard Minor wheel to hand to try on the Indespension hubs of my trailer.
