Ken,

Looks like a fun project. Steve Belfer will be your semi-local TR3 expert.

If you plan to run with VARA, you will find the tire and other rules a bit m=
ore liberal than SVRA for example.

SVRA has been very accommodating regarding Kastner Cup entries from all over=
 the country, but more restrictive in their own run groups.

I brought my Spitfire back to life after sitting 42 years. It=E2=80=99s a jo=
urney=E2=80=A6

Would love to know the history on your car!

I think most vintage clubs use 1 1/2=E2=80=9D over the stock sized wheel as l=
isted in the SCCA PCS. That would be 5 1/2=E2=80=9D by 15=E2=80=9Ds on a TR3=
. 15x6=E2=80=99s are easy to find with multiple styles but not the 15x5 1/2=E2=
=80=99s. I had to go with Panasport to get 5 1/2=E2=80=99s.

You only get one chance at life, make it a TRIUMPH.

I second John's advice. I run those wheels and the Toyos on my TR 4 and
they are much less expensive than Panasports and Hoosiers and last longer.
Just check fit the width of the Toyos as they are wider than the Hoosier
tires.

Hello Ken,
The TR looks to have great patina.  I hope to see it up close and in action. 
I have Panasport 5.5" and 6" for my TR3.  5.5" are the rule but 6" haven't been a problem.  It looks like your fenders are massaged to fit even wider wheels and tires.  Steve B. will chime in on this as VARA allows different tires than groups like CSRG and HMSA, or, HSR that organizes the Rolex race at Laguna.  These race groups are more strict about period correct style tires and wheel sizes.  You can look at their websites for specifics.   
The 6" wheels with 185/65/15 Hoosier tires fit the TR3 with stock fenders.  The rears are tight even with rolled edges.  I think a 205/60 will fit.  I raced with Yokohamas.  They rubbed on the leaf springs in hard turns before I modified the springs and installed .25" spacers.  
I prefer the Panasport wheels.  I think they are closest to the original Mini-lite style and are high quality.  I think I paid about $290 a wheel for new ones.  As other have stated, there are a number of options.  Rota is one of them.  The Panasport "style" wheels that Moss sells are another.  Spokes and knock-offs are super period correct of course and very cool.  I just didn't want the added maintenance of spokes and I'm pretty sure a tube is required.  
Best of luck with the car.

Bob Kramer is spot on, we play by the 1 1/2" over stock rule here out 
east, and for a TR3 that means your are limited at 5 1/2" width. When 
Bill Dentinger finally stopped running (and cracking!) his collection of 
ARE Silverstones on Old Blue, he put a set of the 5 1/2 X 15 Panasports 
on the '56 TR3. He ran Hoosier Vintage TD's, and when I got the car I 
switched to Hoosier Speedsters. Knowing Jeff Snook won a pair of Kastner 
Cups with his TR3A running 195X65R15 Speedsters, and remembering hearing 
Kas compliment Jeff on his choice for tire size, I went with the 
narrower tire. It fits the 5 1/2" wheel better, plus I don't have 
clearance issues with fenders.

If you had witnessed Don Brick and the red wire wheels on his TR4 up 
close and at speed, you also would never go on track at speed on wire 
wheels. With sticky race tires, the front hubs followed Don's hands on 
the wheel, but the spokes flexed so much you could plainly see the rims 
and tires lagging behind! I wish we had cheap in-car cameras back then, 
video of that would be priceless.

Now all I need to do is mention Bob Wismer, and there we have it, the 
original Beady Eye Vintage Triumph Racing Team! I miss you guys...

 Hi,=20

I read all of the replies so far... if your sanctioning body is very strict=
 on wheel width, there were American Racing Le Mans wheels wheels cast in t=
he 5.5 in width back in the day. They were also cast in 6 inch width as wel=
l as 7 in, depending on what they were being used for. For reference, TR6 s=
tock wheel width is 5.5 inches.

It just so happens that I have a set of 7 of those 5.5 in wheels sitting in=
 my attic that others in the household would love to see find a good home. =
I can get pictures of them, but these appear exactly like the VTO LeMans wh=
eels pictured on the VTO web site - except narrower. The wheels I have woul=
d need to be cleaned up (media blasted) and sealed, but they are all in goo=
d condition with no curb rash at all. I'm in Massachusetts, but they can be=
 shipped pretty reasonably by the usual carriers. Price is negotiable, but =
it would score me points if they move to a new home. ;-)

You would have to get the mounting hardware - these wheels use a barrel-sty=
le lugnut and washer, but those are easy to get via Summit Racing or other =
suppliers.

Henry, Original wheels for TR3A through 4A were 4.5" + l.5" = 6"

Subject: Re: [Fot] Need Racing Wheels Advice 1959 TR3A

Bob Kramer is spot on, we play by the 1 1/2" over stock rule here out east, and for a TR3 that means your are limited at 5 1/2" width. When Bill Dentinger finally stopped running (and cracking!) his collection of ARE Silverstones on Old Blue, he put a set of the 5 1/2 X 15 Panasports on the '56 TR3. He ran Hoosier Vintage TD's, and when I got the car I switched to Hoosier Speedsters. Knowing Jeff Snook won a pair of Kastner Cups with his TR3A running 195X65R15 Speedsters, and remembering hearing Kas compliment Jeff on his choice for tire size, I went with the narrower tire. It fits the 5 1/2" wheel better, plus I don't have clearance issues with fenders.

If you had witnessed Don Brick and the red wire wheels on his TR4 up close and at speed, you also would never go on track at speed on wire wheels. With sticky race tires, the front hubs followed Don's hands on the wheel, but the spokes flexed so much you could plainly see the rims and tires lagging behind! I wish we had cheap in-car cameras back then, video of that would be priceless.

Now all I need to do is mention Bob Wismer, and there we have it, the original Beady Eye Vintage Triumph Racing Team! I miss you guys...

I stand corrected. Hoosier's narrower Speedster is 185X65R15, not a 195. 
And while my '56 TR3 most certainly came with 4 inch wide wheels, nobody 
will question if I showed up with 6 inch wide wheels.
