Cerbera 16" Wheels - are there two different fitments?

[spartacus]

The wheels on my 96 4.2 have a 3" step on the face that mates with the hub, whereas I have obtained a spare set of wheels, all four of which have 225x50 tyres fitted (probably ex. SP6 cerb) and they only have a 2.5" step so they don’t fit! has anyone else heard of this?

I haven't, but being a TVR it's all too possible. Suggest you ring the factory and ask.

Guess your right, in the wonderful world of TVR anything is possible!

Seems strange, the 2.5" centre bore was for the Ford 4 stud hubs as per the Griffith & Chimaera and the 3" bore was for the Cerbera? Rich...

If you mean the diameter on the hub, i had 3 wheels on the car with a 3inch dia loc'n and one with a ring inserted in it which took it down to 2/13 sixtiths, this one located on the hub great and the other 3 could locate anywhere depending on where the wheel tightened up. Instead of going back to the dealer i made my own inserts as i thought it would be less bother, all now locate ok.
Oh and mine is a Sp6 and i made them out of aluminum .
