I was looking in the latest MOSS flyer and noticed that they are suggesting 15
inch wheels (5.5 inch wide Minilite knockoffs) to go onto MGBs with 60 series
tyres.
Having gone through the pains of trying to find proper 165SR14 tyres with an
agressive wet/ dry tread I am ready to go to the bigger wheels (of course
having all wheels with worn splines and at least one broken spoke may have
something to do with this as well).
What is the net.wisdom on putting 15 inch 5.5 wide wheels on a B???? Is this to
be prefered over 14 inch 5.5 wide wheels? How about tyre availibility on the
wider 14 inch rims????
Changing the subject a little, Moss has a bunch of give aways but only one per
purchase. I think this means, I call Moss four times, order one wheel and one
give away on each order. The Moss give away ends 31 Dec. Anyone know when the
Roadster Factory Winter sale starts???
Tweeking the subject a bit more. I called the Roadster Factory technical help
line last Wednsday. The person I talked to was very unhelpful. He wasn't about
to research my questions or even take the time to look them up in any reference
materials he may have had. I have received MUCH better technical help from the
people taking my orders. This guy seemed too busy to bother with me.
By contrast, Eric, the technical help person at Moss is great to work with. We
have exchenged all kinds of information. He is willing to take the time to
recearch a question if he does not have a ready answer, and to looke things up
in his reference materials.
Take care,
TeriAnn
