Got mine years ago for about £50. They needed a full refurb so expect to pay a bit more if they are in good condition. Always worth an ask on the NSRA forum or Rods 'n' Sods as they are often used on hot rods with a Vauxhall Viva front end as they have the same stub spacing.

They do have the relevant PCD for minor, however at 8" they are ruddy wide :o 225/235 tyres anyone... (235/55/13 give a 0.17% rolling diameter difference from 145/14s..)

8" wide - racing tyres only I suspect! Ideal set for track-day use! :D

It does say that they have been drilled for BMC cars and have a 4" PCD as well as the Ford PCD. I have 14" x 8" Slot Mags on the back which stick out fairly far and tyres seemed easy enough to find although it may be different for 13" wheels of that width.
Josh, I'm sure if you purchased these and only used two then the other two would be easy enough to sell on :wink:
