I'd like to fit a set of Rostyles to my 2200tc. I'm thinking of going for 15" p5 wheels, as 14" p6 rostyles seem really hard to get. I need 4 new tyres for my project anyway, so I'm hoping moving up to 15" will give a greater choice of tyres (and fewer van tyres )
Am I correct in thinking Rover p5 wheels will bolt straight on with the standard p6 wheel nuts? I'm not fussed that the nuts aren't chrome. Are all p5 Rostyles the same, or is there a width difference between p5 and p5b wheels?
Next question is what tyre sizes fit? I've searched on here, but everyone seems to be asking about fitting to a v8, not a 4pot. 195/65/15 is commonly mentionned. Anyone know if this size will fit a 4cyl? If not, presumably a slightly lower aspect ratio will improve clearance, at the expense of increased engine revs and speedo accuracy.
Thanks,
