To build on what was just posted to this group, there was a problem with me=
tal around the lug stud holes, and a new wheel with reinforced holes was su=
bstituted for the Tiger, dated Jan 1965(according to a parts catalogue chan=
ge) and the very same wheel=C2=A0 replaced all Series 3, Series IV, and Ser=
ies V Alpines when the Alpine portion of the catalogue(3rd revision) was pu=
blished circa Feb 1965. According to the parts catalogue, it also replaces =
wheels on Alpine Series II after car serial # B9107290.
The updated road wheel is part number 1214930. Two of the wheels that came =
with my Tiger are stamped with the updated number. Using the valve stem hol=
e as the 12 OClock position, this stamping is at the 6 OClock postion and a=
n additional number (65 on one wheel of my car and 66 on the other) is at t=
he 9 OClock position. If your road wheels were in the same condition as min=
e, you may have to take a wire brush to the wheels to remove layers of pain=
t to see the number.
