We recommend using our 52mm wooden spinner saver to protect the knock-on caps (spinners) when using a copper and hide hammer.

The chrome wheels have been tubeless since May 2007; the silver-painted wheels have been tubeless since April 2011; and the stainless steel wheels have been tubeless since March 2012.
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
This wheel is an “after market” wheel only. Wire wheels were not a standard option when the vehicle was manufactured, originally only supplied with steel wheels.
Warranty
Stainless Steel and Chrome: three year structural and two year cosmetic.

Please note: ACWW warranty automatically becomes void if the wheels have been: subject to re-work or change; fitted with tyres other than the manufacturer’s recommended fitment; or used for track events.
Splined Hubs
Option 1
Check PCD – some vehicles have 4¼” PCD instead of 4½” PCD:
If 4½”:
RSV5L – Left (please contact us to order)
RSV5R – Right (please contact us to order)
If 4¼”, please contact us to order
Check Nuts – either five 7/16″ or five ½” per hub
Bolt-on splines, unless fitted as original equipment, will increase the track by up to 1¼” per wheel
Studs will require shortening.

Extra Information
Other comments
The P1800 was manufactured in the Jensen Factory in the UK. In 1964 the production moved to Sweden, where the more powerful 1800S, 2l, was built.
Always check the history of the vehicle to ensure that there have been no modifications to the running gear.
Hubs/splines, spinners and nuts remain the same, unless noted otherwise, regardless of which wheel is fitted.
We also stock wire wheel maintenance accessories such as our Cleaning Kit (Refills available) and Cleaning Brush.
