Thanks for the vote of confidence, Lou, but I've already gotten quite a few
favorable comments about the modified TR6 wheels on my TR3.

And anyone who couldn't find damaged TR3 wheels to rob isn't really trying
very hard.  Hard to say they were "ruined" when they were ready for the
scrap yard anyway.  (I just didn't see how to get the posts off, so I made
new ones instead.)

I realize they aren't "correct", but some of us like to actually drive our
cars and IMO keeping up with modern day Los Angeles traffic (not to mention
stopping) requires better tires than are available for the old skinny rims.
