Jack,

are you talking about the replica Dunlop "magnesium" wheels, similar to those
used on the Jaguar D-Type? If thats the case, then I can tell you that these
wheels are a tight fit on a BN2. I had some machining done on the center, so
they would clear the shock absorber arm.

Regards

Betreff: [Healeys] Should I, or Shouldn't I?

I am still torn between getting the center lock alloy wheels for my Healey,
or not getting them. I don't think they will add anlything other than
eliminating inner tubes. Also, I am suspicious of anything VB sells,even
though these probably come from a reputable manufacturer.

I would like to have some input from the list, particularly if you have made
the change and have found some advantage to having them. Otherwise I could
put the money elsewhere in the car.

One thing, they are the same wheels as for the MGC, so I could eventually
swap them if I want to, but would I?

Thanks for sharing your wisdom,


Jack
