    Wire Wheels

    Anyone know of any bolt-on wire wheels in 15 x 5.5-6" or similar that fit the 4 x 4.25" stud pattern of the Tiger/Alpine and will take the power? I've had experience back in the 80's with Truespoke 14x7 with 5x 4.75" PCD, but prefer not having to re-drill the front hubs and use Jag rear hubs etc.

    Door Glass Re-install

    I'm putting new glass in the doors along with new ant-rattle and outside weather strips along with new clips. What is the best order to fit? The gap is quite small if the strips are fitted first and hard to fit if the glass is fitted first, and of course trying not to scratch the new glass.
