| Tyre |
205/60R15 |
| Tube |
Tubeless
This wheel has always been tubeless. Tubes are only required if fitting tube-type tyres.
If you are using tube-type tyres or wish to fit a tube for any other reason then you will need 195/205 x 15 tubes and we recommend 15"/16” rim bands. |
| Notes |
Wire wheels were not a standard option when the vehicle was manufactured, originally only supplied with alloy wheels.
Vehicles built between 1968 and 1979 have a narrower body - wing modifications are necessary.
1991 onwards used the later stub axle and can use the existing bearings. |
