Triumph used two PCD's;
• For the so called small chassis cars they used 4x3,75";
• For the "large" TR's, saloons and Stag they used 4x4.5"

I redrilled mine to 4x100 for a much larger selection of rims.....tired of getting doors slammed in my face for tires and rims.

While the Spitfire has the same PCD the lugs are smaller in diameter.
