Morris Minor Owners Club

What alloy wheels are available for the mog with the correct PCD? Im looking for 13" upwards ideally.

cheers,

Apart from minilites from most major mog suppliers theres very little in the right PCDs / suitable size

Minilites you can get them in different shades and with the new look polished edges uber cool. Try Ebay. There is normally someone selling them new with tyres for around £300.

Try the Compomotive range as they will build to your spec. They are slightly more expensive though. Don't go too wide or large diameter due to the small standard stud size.

The 13" wheels sold for the Mini are cheap and have the 4" pcd - but may be inset too much and rub on the kingpin at the front. Spacers can be fitted to overcome this - but don't go mad. If you go the Marina disc brake route - and either a Marina or Dolomite rear axle then you can use the 3.75" PCD wheels from the MGF/Dolomite Sprint/TR7 etc.

i agree with jonathon go with compomotive as i have had a few sets off them very helpful and can do any offset and size you require
i have found the best all round size to be 6x14 with a 185/60 or
6x15 with a 195x45 but depends on the look you want .

find them at www.comp.co.uk/info/profile.asp or phone them on

Quite a few pop up on ebay, usually slot mags and wellers.
Suits me as I love both styles - what doesn't suit me is the sellers always want money for them. (half a pack of polos and some string apparently wont pay the postal costs either)

I like the looks of the wolfrace slot mags, but they only pop on ebay usually with a 10" diameter. And on a mog that would look stupid!
Minilites are nice, but everyone has them!

Try the colour coded Minilights or colour and stainless finish.

you can occasionlly find 13" wolfrace slot mags with 4" PCD on ebay...

You are the only one who has managed THAT in recent times!!

I spent ages looking for a set.. then 6 wheels turn up all at once! Ive still got 2 of them left over.

Looking at the design of the wheel, If you bought a set with the wrong PCD then I reckon they could be redrilled to a different PCD, so you would end up with 8 mounting holes, and only use 4 of them. 4.5" PCD wolfrace alloys are much easier to find, and are available in larger diameters. worth some consideration if you are after wolfrace alloys on a minor.

My TR7 has 14" x 5.5 x 3.75 pcd Wolfrace wheels . If I manage to get some 15" MGF wheels for it that is exactly my plan for these wheels!! Sadly while MGF wheels are almost given away down south - they seem to be rare as hen's teeth up here!!!!!!!

Hmm, so fitting marina disks and hubs means you have to get different front wheels ,PCD wise, to the rear then?

Or - use a Marina or Dolomite rear axle, or - get the Minor axle rear hubs AND half shafts AND brake drums all machined to take studs at the new pcd!!

Or you could just buy a series mm-could be less expensive depending on what you value your labor

As much as i would love to use a marina axle. It seems a bit daft to get rid of the perfectly good one i already have, just to fit some fancy wheels!
I spose if using 1500 drums at the front the PCD remains the same as the rear?

Wolseley 1500 and Riley 1.5 drums are 4" PCD - same as all except the very early Minors.
