Paul,
Yup, both the Spitfire and the TR7 share a 3.75" bolt circle. I've been
running a set of the Western Wheel turbine style wheels on my '76 autocross
car with no problems for the past two years.. that is no problems from the
wheels. :-)
If the wheels you are looking at use the "mag style" sleeved lugs you have
two options. One is to harass our list adminstrator Mark Bradakis for a
set of 3/8"x24 mag lugs... or swap wheel studs for the TR7 7/16" studs. If
the wheels use the standard mag sleeved size you can walk into most
autoparts stores and get the 7/16" wheel lug nugs fairly easily.
If the wheels use an acorn style lug you may be able to get away with using
the stock Spit lug nugs.
Cheers,
Jim
