Funny that, if you put them on a P5B Rover they work but theven though the car is about the same size and period they just dont sit right on this car.

Although they are not actually P5B Rostyles on the Riley I think they are just as naff on a P5B - a very poor idea compared to the whole wheel stainless hub caps of the P5 3 Litre and the correct Riley hubs caps and ally wheel trims

I know there not P5 wheels - there five stud these on the Riley are four I was just generalising, having never known the P5b with anything other than Rostyles it seems natural to see them on a P5b but who knows BMC may have toyed with the idea with putting them on the MG version if they had then maybe they wouldnt have looked so out of place on the Riley.

P5B's only had Rostyles - P5's had conventional wheels with hub caps

I said P5B in my first thread and as I said I was just generalising. Phil it feels like your just nit-picking a bit, this is a good site lets not sour it. Steve

| Like the car, nice colour combo but the wheels are dreadful - too small and quite simply wrong. |
