i have two dents on the inside of my rear spiders, one worse than the other. i have seen 2 for sale but the ad says they are fronts. i thought the tyres had a higher profile on the front, but the alloys were the same size. does anyone know. thanks

No,the rears are wider, I know because I had a front wheel on my rear when I bought my Tam, and wondered why a TVR logo centre cap wasn't on it, I found out why when I bought the centre cap, it didn't fit, so I had to order a brand new rear wheel!

I have to disagree with Chris on this one on the Tuscan both front and rear wheels are 8 1/2 inches but the OFFSET`s are different
