Wheels tyres and Exhaust

[raf dug]

The 16inch wheels and tyres and original exhaust are turning up tomorrow as i have nowhere to keep them I will be selling them. Should I put them in the Cebera classifieds or will the wheels fit on other cars as well?Apparantly wheels tyres and exhaust are all as new.

[Cyclone1]

I think the wheels may be Cerbera only. Put them both in the classifieds and provided they are priced fairly you should get rid with no problems.

They will only fit Chims/Griffs with hub conversions, which usually come with wheels so unless omeone with a hub conversion has damaged a rim (Melvin ), unlikely to sell elsewhere.

However, its fair to say I would think they wont be much loved by cerb owners either, where 18" are all the rage (despite the car actually riding far better on 16s ) - so you may struggle to sell them. If you genuinly have no where to store them, I'd stick them on ebay and post a link to the ad on PH classifieds.

I've noticed the bumpy ride, there is only enough space to get one finger in between the front wheels and the arches hence you feel even the smoothest manhole cover and it has the turning circle of the QE2,BUT they look so damned good there staying on

I'll be in touch when they turn up,probably day after tomorrow as i'm on at 1.30am tonight and tomorrow.I will tell you what they are like and how new the tyres are.(previous owner says I wil be very impressed, I hope so because i'm paying for the haulage).

Talking of tyres where is the can of tyre foam mentioned in the handbook that TVR supply instead of a spare wheel?

Holts Tyre Weld

[robscim]

The tyre weld should be behind the velcro panel on the o/s of the boot, with the other bits you don't have room for!

However, if you're going to use it (!!!) I'd get a new one else it won't work when you need it.

Obviously, I've got two (both inherited) but if I need to use one, I'll be calling the RAC!!

Well done on losing the saab for a cerb!

Cheers

Does anyone know if the 16s will fit over the larger, drilled discs ?

I would be interested if Toad1 isn't and they do !

[RUSSELLM]

I've had the latest discs fitted & I've got the original 16" wheels, I don't think they had to change anything.

[carl_w]

I'll have them if they have decent tyres on them

Had to use it on mine the other day and did it work....NOPE!!!! Mind you it could have been the 2cm split, as I just got white stuff spraying out like some white volcano. Thinking now of getting a space saver if there is one?

[jensena]

The 16" wheels fit loads of cars, including Nissan, Toyota, some fords, Mazda's. The stud pattern and PCD are pretty standard, and apparently the Cerbera wheels are much favoured by - I'll try and say it quietly - Mazda Bongo owners !!
