 I've seen several lists that give other makes (Datsuns, Toyotas, Mazda
RX-7s and Saabs) that have the same 4 on 4.5" bolt circle as TR2-6.
However, I haven't seen anything that says what else has the right
backspace (around 4") and hub center bore.

Is there *any* other, stock wheel that I can get from my friendly
neighborhood "auto recycler" and bolt on without lots of modification? I
figure some Saabs and Datsun or Toyota pick-up trucks might have 15"
wheels. The hub opening could probably be bored out, but I'm at a loss as
far as backspace goes. (I want something to replace the relatively fragile
TR6 steel wheels, and I'm er, frugal.  Yeah, that's it, frugal).
