It looks as if you painted the windscreen black to compensate.[:)]

Not a Wolfrace slot fan but that's OK if you are.

The TR7 looks good in black windscreen. If I wasn't going for the original look I'd paint my Spider's too. At least my Integra is all black.

nope the bozo who fitted my windscreen didn't clip it on the glass before it was installed, it's something i keep reminding my self to do.
I don't know if you can make it out on this photo but at the moment it has a similar look too some of the newer cars that don't have any trim or rubber....

Don't know if you've noticed Gaz, but that 'Bozo' has not fitted the screen or trim on the other one [;)].
The things they think they can get away with eh! [:D] [:D].

Has anyone ever tried wire rims with knock-offs?

I'd like to know if it works

Digressing slightly, has anyone managed to obtain wheel nut covers for the wheel nuts on the standard alloys? 21mm is too small and 22mm are not readily available, but seem to big. I presume they are 7/8". If so where were they accquired? Not to everyones taste I know, but the standard wheel nuts seem to corrode quickly. supercass

Wheel nut covers?! Didn't we all buy Terrys wonderful stainless nuts when we had the (once-off) chance to do so?

No I didn't because I didn't know they were available [:D]
He should have advertised a bit more [:p]

BTW who's Terry? [:I]

I have the original steel wheels with the plastic wheel covers. I never was particularly fond of them. Now the beads are so rusted, they won't form a seal with the tire bead. Iâ€™ve posted the issue here, Rust on OE Steel Wheels http://www.forum.triumphtr7.com/topic.a ... C_ID=17088

Thanks for the thread and the link to the other â€œwhat wheelsâ€ thread. I read all posts in both. Iâ€™m thinking of going to 14â€ or 15â€ alloy wheels with 195-60R14 or 205-50R15 tires.

16â€ and 17â€ just seems too big with not enough rubber on the road.

What wheels fit TR7s. Do others share the pcd?

FI Spyder · Postby **FI Spyder** » 10 Oct 2015 14:55

Very few do. I have some old alloy's that came off an old Lotus (not sure what model(s) ), the newer MGF/TF and the Spitfire although the Spitfire's lugs are of smaller diameter. Anybody know of more?

A friend got a set of alloys from Phoenix,AZ (made in Australia or New Zealand I believe) which were blanks and had the holes cut to correct PCD.
