Thanks for the EBay link...good price is they will fit and have right off set.

I have never been able to get a clear answer on Jaguar wheels being a straight swop for a Bristol. Do you know if this is the case?

My only reservation, if they fit, is that they are designed for wheel bolts not for going onto studs as on a Bristol so there will be issues I feel. perhaps I am wrong and someone can confirm its all OK.

As suggested I visited Brain marelli yesterday and amongst many matters we discussed wheels. Brian can supply me with a set of Woofrace wheels at £185 each and Blenheim wheels at £225 each. I think these are both 15 x 6 inch wheels and take 205 or 215 tyres.

Brian could not give me a quotation or supply the Compomotive wheels. I did however see a blenheim with them on in the workshop and noted they had cast into them 7J x 16ET which may be the reference for a wheel to fit a Bristol. tyres fitted where 225 x 60R16's.

Brain felt that the Compomotive wheels might fowl the front inside on on full lock without the hub extension of the later cars. Anybody know if this is the case?

If I wanted to have the wide rear axle and front hub extensions he can supply them.

Oh well lots of time to figure that one out.
