Minilite wheels.

[Staghound]

I see many of you have Minilite wheels fitted to Stags.....Do they require longer wheel studs, hub mods or will they fit straight on. Am thinking of 15"x6J sized wheels.

Thanks,

Andrew.

Andy, mine fitted straight on, came with bolts. I have 15" wheels but I don't know how wide. Bought them from midland wheels at the stonliegh Triumph spares day

Don't recall offhand, Dieter. I know they were supplied by MWS and fit straight on with no fouling problems. They are 6J and fitted with 195/65 tyres. Quite a few Stag owners have them.

Hi all,

My Stag was fitted with 14 x 7 Minilites fitted with 205 x 70 tyres and they rubbed on the rear wheel arch. The tyres bulged on the rim, so a narrower profile may have worked but, IMO, the 14" / width ratio didn't look too good in the wheelarch. I think a 15" rim would look better though.
I prefer the look of the Stag alloys so they were first to go, followed quickly by the hardtop. Horses for courses though, I have Minilites on my MG Midget.

Rgds.
