Being on the lookout for some cheap wider rims, I am watching these BUT is it just me or does the centre hole look far to big for Minors?

Re: Weller Rims on eBay
If your after wider don't companies make your wheels wider? Either by adding a strip or putting the centres into other rims. http://www.bandedsteelwheels.co.uk/banded-steel-wheels

Re: Weller Rims on eBay
Asking the seller to confirm the PCD is the obvious route, if you are not sure?

I've asked him a few questions but I don't think he knows too much about them.oliver90owner wrote:Asking the seller to confirm the PCD is the obvious route, if you are not sure?
Do you know if the PCD would be stamped on the rims?

Re: Weller Rims on eBay
The seller states they were intended for a Mini in which case they will be too small for a Minor 

Re: Weller Rims on eBay
I was a bit surprised at the listing mentioning both Minor & Mini - when I zoomed in on the pictures the tyres appear to have 175/70/13 on them & he states they were taken from a Minor.......amgrave wrote:The seller states they were intended for a Mini in which case they will be too small for a Minor

Re: Weller Rims on eBay
They are 4 stud wheels! Can't be difficult to measure across, centre to centre (or outside to inside of holes), to the nearest mm.
"Taken from a Minor" could be misleading. Minors have been fitted with Marina (or other) hubs and axles, as we well know.
Mini wheels are 4" (101.6mm) PCD, as far as I am aware.
