I bought second hand wires from ebay (£80 for five) then sandblasted them and sprayed them myself, total outlay was about £140, plus about £280 for a set of Triumph splined adaptors (long for 14 & 15" wheels not short type for 13's). If you want new wheels then you could do worse than speak to the MGB Hive -

DVLA inspection comes after bonding on the body but before cutting off the rear boot outriggers or the ends of the front crossmember.
Good luck.  |
Cheers, Point 1 NOTED, Point 2 great idea will do
Going to make a offer on some with the splined adapters, might be able to shot blast my self then spray, will see.
