1) I would love to hear from someone who went to Bristol Cars and bought a new set of steel (or better) wheels for their vintage Bristol that looks the same but has the diameter and offset of the more affordable and available modern wheels, and is certified by the factory as an acceptable replacement.

2) On the taxi tyre issue, this is where the Club or new Club should step in, go to Bristol Cars and ask them to issue an official factory statement to the effect that they are acceptable for Bristols that do not exceed 99 mph.
