are they the 10 inch wheels that fit out side 8 inch disks ?

[AshW]

i thought that at first, but then i look at the shape of the holes in them and they are the same shape as 12 inch rims

Dont know about the wheels they look like standard 12,s but deeper,but if it helps i know early morris minor hubcaps fit 12 inch standard rims,so im guessing thats what the hubcaps are?

this kinda thing before they started stamping "M" in the middle

They look like banded standard Rover 12" wheels.

You could make any hubcap to fit by fitting clamps to the wheels.
Bit of imagination and creativity, a drill, some bolts and machined poly bobbles...
Pretty much straight forward

Morris, Austin-Healey, VW Beetle - I think there are multiple possibilities

thanks guys, i think i am going to go for some chrome hub caps now, they will look good on my mini when i go back to steel wheels.

The 12 inch hubcaps have hands that stick out and grab on to the holes in the wheel. At least mine was like that.

I don't know if (not positive) the 12 and 10 hubcaps are the same size, you better check which ones you are buying first.

kool thanks, just a quick question, how wide are your wheels?

[Bungle]

[AshW]
