Hi all,
Reading Stu Keen's posting about tubeless tires on a TD caused me to
remember to ask the following...
On the Heritage Certificate I got for my '59 MGA 1500 it says that it was
equipped with tubeless tires as optional equipment. There is no mention of
special wheels. It doesn't appear that the wheels I currently have on the
car are safety rims but I have no way to know if they are original to the
car. Oh yeah, these are steel wheels not wire wheels I'm talking about.
Was there a safety rim available as optional equipment in 59 or had the
factory determined that you could run tubeless on the standard rim? I
couldn't find any mention in the "Original MGA" book.
Thanks for any info.
