[Tigers] Tiger Spare Tire and Rim

[Joel Martin]

Tom
What I find for the MK II, silver is correct but Mk 1A's are different.



MK 1A owners or knowledgeable persons?

 For what it's worth, my Mark 2 rims are grey on both sides, no evidence obvious of any black paint on the rear. As far as I know the wheels are original, untouched (the condition of the car when I bought it in 1976 was, at best, "rough," I doubt the rims were repainted.

My trunk is finally complete except for the spare tire,wheel and lug nuts that would go with whatever wheel is used.  I still have some questions and here is what I havefound so far. Dunlop 590 x 13” RS5 with a 1” white sidewall orGoodyear “Made in England 600 x 13” Roadway Speed with a 1”white sidewall Wheel – standard steel 4-1/2” x 13” rimPainted black – Is this gloss black or another black, semi,satin, flat?Then re-sprayed a gray-white on the front – what does thismean?  The entire front of the wheel/rimor just a portion?  Any rattle can paintcan number anyone could provide? I would like to find a current tire replacement ‘size’,165x80x13 as an example of what matches the 590x13” or 600x13”designation.  What does 590 or 600x13translate to? Does anyone have a picture of what the wheel and tire shouldbe from the front with the 1” white sidewall and this ‘gray-white on the front’is suppose to look like that they would share? I have some LAT wheels with the markings on the inside of“SRC 1300, 5.5 X 1300, patent pending, ?celes cali?”    As measured from the inside of the lip, they are 5.5” wide. The steel wheel, chrome ring and cap that I have is 4.5”wide from the inside of the lip but has no markings on it that I can find,inside or outside.  Should there be?Please see attached picture and tell me if this is a correct Tiger MK 1A sparewheel or what this might have come off of? I have had this wheel for so many years and no idea where I got it. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge. RegardsJoel Martin
