Sorry guys another question.
Will MGTF alloys for on a 214 Rover?

I'm sure I saw somewhere that MG are specific to their cars only.

Pretty sure that t hub stud spacings are different, my boy posed the same question a while back whilst running a ZR and was given the same reply. No doubt someone will confirm/deny!

Being at work not been able to measure PCD but good old Google reckons the R8 has the same PCD as the MGF's.
Will measure tomorrow and answer my own question

I'm sure the MGF rims are the same as the Metro/100 but they shoudln't fit the R8.

Do you need rims as I have a few MGF/TF alloys that need to be gone ?

No I've seen some MGTF alloys on eBay for my 214. Just needed to know if they fit

FInd the bad news here.

Different PCD, ET and centre bore:

Code: Select all

Model	  Year		 PCD		Offset	  Bore
MGF		 96 on		4×95.25  18 to 27	56.6
200/400	90 to 99	4×100	 35 to 45	56.1

Afraid the PCD on the Mgf alloys are not the same as an R8

I think MGF wheels fit the Maestro & Montego

The one I found was horribly wrong then (can't be arsed to look for it again, it's too late

)

The PCD shows the origins of the 2 cars.

MG F was the last of the 'BL-derived' line and so used the "3 3/4 inch" PCD.

R8, being co-developed with Honda, used the then prevalent metric equivalent.
