For about $25 more you can have Superlites and they will look right and fit
right !  You won't look like a rice racer nor will you need a 1000 watt set of
subs. :)

  I am going crazy trying to drive on my old out-of-tune
  48 spoke wires on TS75434. Floppy and noisy! I am
  thinking of trying minilites or something of the like
  and found an auction on Ebay that offers adapters that
  change bolt pattern from TR3 to something more
  universal. For instance, BMW Mini wheels fit the
  adapter.

  I then looked at tire rack and found these wheels for
  $99 ea:

  Change center logo to Triumph and WALAH! Might just
  have a cool wheelset. $240 for the adapters + $396 for
  the wheels = cheaper than minilites.

  Thoughts? Can I find adapters for cheaper than $240?

  Thanks
