Can you identify my wheels?

I have just put a post on the "Wanted " section re wheel nuts for some wheels I have bought, intending to fit them to my P6.

I was told they were Vitesse wheels, but when I searched for information re Vitesse wheels on this site it appears Vitesse wheels are 15", whereas mine are 14" :?

Can anyone tell me what I have bought? :?:
Incidentally I have "mocked" them on to the rear of my P6 with some old sleeve nuts and a jumble of assorted washers and they fit nicely, fitted with 175-14 tyres there do not appear to be any problems with clearance and would probably take a wider tyre section.

Many thanks,I can also be contacted on robin.haslam555@virgin.net
 
Contact rimmer bros for the wheel nuts or a guy called Hugh "room05" on ebay who may have the correct nuts.

I used Standard off the shelf Mag wheel nuts from Repco (largest automotive chainstore in NZ) but had to add some spacer washers as the mag nut shank was too long, as i understand it others have replaced the P6 wheel stud with SD1 studs how ever if you do this you may have issues if you wish to retain your standard P6 wheel rim as a spare, others may correct me on this.

Many thanks for all replies!
I now have one SD1 alloy wheel nut on the way from Rimmers so I can see if they are 7/16"UNF (in which case they will fit straight on) or metric (in which case I can use the outer measurements as a pattern) as opinion seems to be divided over this. I know my luck - they will definitely not fit ie they will be metric!!
But isn't that why we all tinker about with older cars?? :roll:

Thanks again,

Robin
 
The Rimmers' ones will be metric as they're for the SD1. You'll need to get imperial ones, and watch the spacer size.
