RS Motorsport :: Classic Speed Restored

Hi, I'm after a set of steel wheels (13") that will fit standard Mark 1 hubcaps and fit under standard guards. I like the look of the standard wheels, but hate the 12" tyres!

If anyone can help out that'd be great.

Thanks,

Dave

Darren, thanks for the info. What company in the UK sells these wheels?

I have seen 13" wheels with (what I thought to be) Mark 1 hubcaps on them in the past, but these are becoming harder and harder to find...

Thanks,

Dave

Hi Dave
The company in the UK was selling the 12' caps only, no wheels. Sorry, should have been more specific. But when I asked about different cap sizes, he hadn't heard of the different ones we have here, and wanted me to sent a picture, but never got around to it.
I have only ever seen one Mk1 Cortina with 13' rim and the Escort 12' cap, and it was at last years 'Speed on the Tweed'. This was before it had struck this size difference problem, so didn't quiz the owner about it.
When I bought my Twin Cam, it came with a lot of bits, and one of them was supposed to be an original 13' rim, but the 12' cap doesn't fit, only the Cortina one does???? I'm not a 100% sure the Australian Twin Cam ever had the chrome centre cap as an option (never seen a photo).
