Marina shares it's stud pattern with Spitfires / Herald / Dolomite and the MGF. Oh and a large number of single-seat race cars. So there are wheel options out there without having to resort to redrilled hubs.  |

You can DEFFO get allycats in 33/4, I was outbid on some a couple of weeks ago. I have a feeling you can get them new if your pockets are deep enough.

Marina wheels are 3.75" 4-stud (3/8" UNF) with a 13mm offset. Dolly alloys and MGF/Maestro/Montego alloys/steels have a 35mm offset so a set of Grayston spacers would give you a -10mm offset (35-13=22mm, Graystons are 32mm thick, hence -10mm). I have 15" Montego alloys on my Ital estate with spacers and as long as the bushes and shocks at the front are OK they are no aggro. TR7 alloys bolt straight on, as do Spitfire/GT6. 98mm PCD will go on with wobble bolts (Marinas are 95.25mm) or 'persuasion'  Have a look here www.fastmarinamagazine.com/for more details. ;D |
