<< 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.

Hi Michael
I have 165r 15's on the minilite replicas on my TR4. Been on there for a 
number of years & no worries.
