So I was at the local pick & pull yesterday getting lug nuts to fit my current project, a home-made potter’s wheel for Karen. Took them off a Nissan Sentra & looked down at the steel wheel on same.
15 x 6, 4-bolt pattern, with 15 holes ’round the rim.
Remarkably similar to an MG TD.
I shelled out $14 and brought the wheel home. The bolt holes won’t line up, but otherwise it looks promising. Looks like the offsets are about the same as the VW wheels–maybe a half inch further out than stock (as it’s a half-inch or so wider).
I’m thinking of buying one of Moss’s repro TD hubcaps to see it it’ll fit. Before I spend that $25, I figured I’d ask: am I blazing a new trail here or has someone tried this already? If it’s been tried, what was the result?
