I have just finished rebuilding a Marina based TF but the wire wheels are a bit tatty. I was hoping to fit a new set of chrome wheels but the hub splines don't fit the grooves on MGB wire wheels. Does anyone know what the original wheels would have been from?

I'm sorry I have no idea - they must be after market wheels as the Marina had bolt on steel wheels.

The best idea is to measure the hub diameter and count the number of splines - then contact someone like MWS who specialise in wire wheels with the hope that they will be able to help.

Hope this helps

Hi Kevin,

Are the hubs bolt on or an integral part of the hub? I have a Marina based car and the splined part is bolt on. These have the same PCD as some triumphs such as Spitfires and some early TR7's.

Yes - the splined hubs bolt onto the original Marina hubs. I wouldn't think that the original kit would have had custom hubs and wheels hence my question - I would think that the wheels are from something fairly standard and Triumph sounds like a good call.
