Hi Team,

I need some help from anyone who's added aftermarket wheels to their cars. I 
want to try to avoid using spacers or adapters but apparently that's a 
problem sometimes for the MGB.

I plan on using 215/60-15's on the project (I am installing the Sebring body 
flares so width shouldn't be a problem) and am having a problem getting 
wheels with the correct offset.  A lot of wheels nowadays are made with the 
hub close to the outside of the wheel which isn't what I need.  I'd prefer a 
"deeper" dish wheel with the back-space the same as original Rostyles (about 
4 inches) but shops have said that may not be possible.

I have the list of other cars that have the same bolt pattern that someone 
posted a while back but I'd rather have something fancier, if possible.

Anyone out there been down this road and can offer advice on what wheels are 
available?

Thanks for any help.

Cheers
Simon
