Chim & Griff Factory Fit 16" wheels

[the dodger]

I know the last Griffs were the 100 LE's and were fitted with 16in wheels all round - but what about the last of the Chims? They continued to build Chims after the death of the Griff - but were they on 16in all round? And are they the same width (7.5in)?

Cheers all.

Tyre Size - Front 225/45 R16 Z

Ah yes Matt, but what size was it delivered with from the factory? I suspect you have changed to 16in fronts?

Pretty sure the factory sizes for 16's all round were:
Front 225/45/16
Rear 245/45/16

This is also the sizes for the spider upgrade.

Anybody got a late car with 16in fitted from new?

What does it say in handbook (or any other TVR document)?

Thanks.

16" wheels were fitted from new to the later cars (with the enclosed headlamps). However, none of the changes actually made it into the handbook!
