MG Listers,

The bolt spacing is 4.5" - These are the same as rear-wheel-drive, four lug
Datsun/Nissan, Dodge/Mits, Toyota, Ford Falcon, Chevy Corvair, MG, and
Trimnph TR3/4/5/250/and 6.

I knew a fellow who raced a lowered MGB with stock early (1971??) 240Z
wheels painted silver hammerite with 175/70x14 tyres that looked racy and
seemed to fit with a minimum of rear wheel arch trimming. Old mags that fit
the 1600/2000 Datsun roadsters will fit without trimming.

Lots of aftermarket stuff was built with this bolt pattern pecause it was
very popular in the Sixties and Seventies.

Cheers,
