 Hi All, The Healey stud circle diameter is 5.00 inches.  I purchased
aluminum spacers in two different thicknesses at a local street rod
shop.  They can also be ordered from a JEGS catalog.  I used 1950s
vintage 15" Buick wheels on my AH back in the mid-60s when I couldn't
afford to replace the 48-spoke wires.  Just remove the spline adapter
and they'll bolt right up.

You could pull a hub spline and take measurements off of that.
