Wheels

[Fergie <fergie@ntplx.net>]

Considering replacing my beat up wire wheels with Minilites or
Panasports. In browsing the catalogs, it appears that they are available
only in 15 x 5 1/2" size (or larger). Original steel wheel on a TR3 was
15 x 4 1/2". I have 165R15 radials on the car and am not planning to
replace them. Two questions...Will 165s be okay on a 5 1/2" rim?  Is a 5
1/2" rim too wide for a TR3?

As always, thanks for the sage advice.
