Tube Tubeless

The chrome wheels have been tubeless since October 2006; the silver-painted wheels have been tubeless since July 2007; and the stainless steel wheels have been tubeless since April 2008.

If you have the older, tubed wheels or are fitting tube-type tyres you will need 175/185 x 15 tubes and we recommend 15"/16" rim bands.
Notes Vehicles manufactured from late 1967 onwards were fitted with Flat (Easy Clean) hubs as standard - always check the style required during the transitional period.

Due to the shape of the rear wings you are unable to fit wider wheels.
