Hello all. I have found a salvage TR6 today that has all 5 wheels. Except for the spare, they all have rust on them. My question to the list is, what would be a fair price to offer for these wheels,

Hello Paradise Music: Crooked TR6 steel wheels seem to be a dime a dozen and are almost exclusively what people are running on who have not bought alloy or wire wheels. Check those rims for trueness

Thanks again for the oponions/knowledge concerning the steel wheels. I think I'll pass on these. I did get a good buy on a complete set of tail lights for $30! I was pretty pumped up about that. Brya

Hi Bryan! <<I think I'll pass on these. >> I would think twice about that. Especially considering what you got the lite assemblies for (congrats!). Offer the guy $5/ea. Keep in mind, there are NO mor

A good way to check wheels for warpage is to mount them on a lathe and rotate them with a dial indicator gauge riding along the bead. -- Best Regards, Tom == This list supported in part by The Vintag

Since most of us don't have a lathe with a 16-inch throw lying around the shop, bolting the wheel to the front of a handy Triumph and giving it a spin seems to work fine. Phil Ethier West Side Saint

FWIW Dept.: Of course having straight/true wheels is mandatory for shimmy-less motoring, but I'd also recommend taking a good look at the wheels after the tires are on..... Mount 'em on the car and g

When we adjusted the runout on my wheels the machinist said that factory wheels can have up to .100" runout. Mine were adjusted to less than .010" runout. You may not have a lathe but having a machin

Years ago, I had all four of my TR6's original steel wheels blasted, trued and then powder-coated. Now our lousy roads in Quebec have bent a couple a bit out of true and yet again my poor car has the

Hi, Mark A quick check of Mr. Rimmer's website in the UK indicates the TR6 factory issue steel wheel is available. That's the good news. The not so good news is they cost about US$200 each plus shipp
