Brad,

Sorry...can't help with the wheel ID but watched a cable TV special yesterday 
on Sprint Cars (dune buggies with 400 hp engines & wings) and had an idea for 
your TR4....use the 13" on both nearside wheels; 14" on the offside, put a 
wing over the boot and take it around an oval dirt track with the sprint 
cars...that ought to generate some unusual fun....just kidding of 
course....hmmmm, wonder what a Spit Mk3 with 13" wheels and 18" wheels, 
signal red wing, 4.3L alcohol burning V6.....would do on such a track?

Sounds like an article for a future issue of Spitfire & GT6 Magazine!

'76 TR6 CF57822U (restoration underway & looking quite spiffy)
'70 Spit Mk3  FDU78512L (about ready for a long winter's nap)
