Wheel by wheel: offset and tyres

Each original wheel from Triumph TR8 is compared with the one from Rover 100-Serie of the same diameter: how much closer the wheel gets to the shock absorber or how far it sticks out of the wheel arch, and whether the tyre keeps the same overall diameter.

    Compared with the original ≈5Jx13 ET52 on Rover 100-Serie: shock absorber side −14.3 mm, wheel arch side +39.7 mm, tyre diameter +10.8 % : fit it with the original tyre size of Rover 100-Serie (155/65R13), not that of Triumph TR8. Comparison for guidance only (estimated width). Check in detail

Before fitting the wheels

An identical hub is not enough: offset, width and diameter change the position of the wheel, and larger calipers can touch a smaller wheel. Original wheels often use bolts or nuts with a specific seat: keep the fixings intended for the wheel, with the thread of Rover 100-Serie (Ecrous - 12x1.50), tightened to the torque shown on its vehicle page. Finally, check that the size is among the approved fitments for your vehicle. This comparison is for guidance only: have the fitting approved by a professional.
