Morris 1300 wheels

Post by vegar »

I know this is not Mini relatere, but there is such a nice and knowlage group on here, so I fare Ask anyway :)

I have a set of nice Minilite 5x12" who I purchased for my Morris 1300. They sort of fit, but the offset is wrong. Can someone please tell me what car they are from/for??

The problem with fitting wheels not form the 1100 /1300 range is, there are very few wheels that will match the large offset that the model range use's, think it is around 45mm

Sorry not sure what the wheels may have come from.

There is an Austin 1300 GT that goes around the local show scene here in NI running a set of 5 spoke Hyundai Accent alloys. Actually looks pretty cool.
