Triumph Stag Wheels
Complete your Stag's distinctive appearance with our comprehensive wheel and tyre range. From authentic steel wheels with correct trim to period-appropriate alloy options, every wheel choice affects both appearance and performance. The balance between authenticity and modern capability makes wheel selection particularly important for creating the perfect Triumph Stag for your driving preferences.
What wheel options maintain period authenticity?
Standard steel road wheels with correct trim provide the most authentic appearance for period correctness. These wheels maintain the proportions and visual weight that complement the Stag's elegant lines whilst providing reliable performance. The trim rings and hubcaps complete the authentic look whilst protecting the wheel centres from corrosion and damage.
Factory alloy road wheels featuring the distinctive 5-spoke design represent the premium option available during production. These wheels reduce unsprung weight whilst providing the sophisticated appearance that suited the Stag's upmarket positioning. Our Triumph Stag wheel options maintain these important distinctions for authentic restoration or tasteful upgrading.
How do different wheel designs affect performance?
Classic 8-spoke alloy road wheels in 6J x 14 specification (RM82386J) provide improved performance characteristics whilst maintaining period-appropriate styling. The reduced weight compared to steel wheels improves suspension response and reduces rotational inertia, enhancing both acceleration and braking performance. The spoke design ensures adequate brake cooling whilst providing visual appeal.
Genuine 16-inch Minilite alloy wheels represent the ultimate in period competition styling. These wheels provide the authentic motorsport appearance that many enthusiasts desire whilst offering improved tyre selection and handling characteristics. The larger diameter allows for modern tyre profiles that can enhance both performance and safety compared to original specifications.
Which wire wheel options suit the Stag?
MWS 72-spoke wire wheel conversion kits transform the Stag's appearance whilst providing the classic aesthetic that many consider the ultimate in elegance. The conversion includes all components needed for authentic wire wheel installation, including proper hub modifications and safety equipment. Wire wheels require more maintenance than solid wheels but provide unmatched visual appeal.
Wire wheel components and replacement parts ensure long-term serviceability of these sophisticated wheel systems. Spokes, nipples, and hub components all require periodic attention, making parts availability crucial for wire wheel ownership. Professional maintenance keeps wire wheels safe and beautiful whilst preserving their authentic character.
What security features protect valuable wheel investments?
Wheel nuts provide both mounting security and theft protection, particularly important given the value and desirability of quality alloy and wire wheel combinations. Modern wheel nuts often incorporate security features that deter theft whilst maintaining authentic appearance. The correct thread pitch and seat design ensure proper wheel retention under all operating conditions.
Security wheel nuts use unique key patterns that make unauthorised removal extremely difficult. These systems provide peace of mind for owners of valuable wheel and tyre combinations whilst maintaining the visual authenticity that matters for show presentation. Professional installation ensures these security features work correctly whilst remaining invisible to casual observers.
How do mudflaps complement wheel choices?
Mudflaps provide practical protection for paintwork and other road users whilst completing the Stag's refined appearance. Quality mudflaps integrate with the car's lines without appearing like afterthoughts. The correct mounting arrangements ensure secure attachment whilst allowing for suspension movement and wheel clearance.
Modern mudflap materials often provide superior durability compared to original rubber compounds whilst maintaining authentic appearance. The balance between protection and appearance makes mudflap selection particularly important for cars that see regular road use. Proper installation ensures long service life whilst maintaining ground clearance and approach angles.
What tyre considerations affect wheel selection?
Modern tyre technology offers significant improvements in safety, performance, and longevity compared to tyres available during production. However, maintaining authentic appearance often requires compromises in tyre selection. The balance between authenticity and performance makes tyre choice particularly important for determining your Stag's character.
Wheel diameter affects available tyre options, with larger wheels typically offering better performance tyre selection whilst potentially compromising ride comfort. The Stag's grand touring character benefits from tyres that provide good wet weather performance and comfortable road manners rather than maximum performance at the expense of refinement. Our comprehensive wheel selection ensures your Stag combines authentic appearance with the performance characteristics that make it such a rewarding car to drive, whether you prioritise original authenticity or subtle performance enhancement.
