hey... i have a cheap race dat (not road rego)with a slightly worked a12. and my dad has rebuilt 3 triumph stags, so we have both the 3 litre stag V8 and the 4.4 rover v8 (common
stag convrsion), as well as many 2.5 litre triumph straight sixes. he has currently put the 4.4 P76 into a mark 2 triumph sedan, but he has become bored, so that last message has
really got me thinkin'. what do you guys reckon would be the least stupid swap???? (since none of them r really that sensible)

From standard rim (as fitted) the general rule is up a rim size, one profile down and same width tyre or down a profile size and next size
wider.

I am running 195/60/14 on a 6.5 rim on my coupe...so with a 13 rim you would go up a series in profile like 195/70/13 or run with 205/60/
13...I think???

Usually a tyre store will/can tell you what size will fit.
