Hi
It is Septemper! and finaly my +2 has reached the age of 35. It meens that i can registre the car as vintage, and safe a lot of money. I have the three eared spinners on my wheels. I will soon take the car thru the MOTtest and the spinners are not legal in denmark. I need some octogonal spinners for the testsession. I talked to Paul mattys (Clive) and they only have 3... I have browsed Ebay and no Lotus spinners there. My Question is: can i fit MGB spinners on a Lotus hub? it seems that they are cheep, and i will only use them for the test. I love the three eared ones, and i am willing to take a chance with the police in the future.
Regards
Otto

Otto,
Unfortunately, Lotus spinners are completely different to MGB wire wheel ones. They do come up on eBay from time to time - keep watching!
I prefer the octagonal ones as it is easier to tighten them without damaging either the wheel or spinner from hammer blows...
Kind regards,
Matthew
