My old 48 spoke rims have run their life , fitted with 165/80R Hancooks
also past their use by date.
Updated to Dayton 60 spoke 4-1/5 rims with Michelin 180/HR XAS as
recommended by Longstone Tyres UK
as closest match for Dunlop RS5.
The Hancooks looked a bit lean in the wheel arch while the Michelins fill
it out nicely.
PROBLEM :- The right side tyre now touches the guard bottom
turn-in & the left side is just clear.
Both rear tyres sit just outside the guard
& I am concerned that wheel travel will hit the guards.
The Daytons were purchased from the Healey Factory here in OZ & claimed to
be specifically for a BN1-2.
To me it looks like the rim should sit further in ie the offset is too far
out.
The rim is branded 4.5 Beadlace D2-88.
Any input would be appreciated
