I believe 15 x 4=C2=BD was original for a 3A.  Bolt circle is 4=C2=BD".

I do not know the offset though there are a plethora of alloys and wires
specifically for the 3A.

Wheel hole patterns are generally expressed in millimeters.
I believe the TR6 wheel is 4 x 118mm. Is the TR3 the same?

I believe the TR^ & TR3 bolt patterns are the same - but as we're talking
about a spec that was laid down more than 60 years ago I think inches would
be the precise measurement (though some aftermarket mfgs may prefer to use
a metric measurement).

Since 118mm is not 4=C2=BD" (it's more than 4 5/8") you will want to double
check any wheels offered using metric measurements.

A quick look at a wheel website...

http://www.wheelsupport.com/list-of-bolt-pattern-4-x-114-3/

...shows quite a few mfgs using a 114.3mm bolts circle which is, simply,
4=C2=BD".
