I thought the earlier ones were 4x4" and only the later were 4x100? Could be wrong. Probably am.

On retrorides the listing for the Midget says that all years have the same PCD which is 4x4"

Anyone know for sure as there is a set near me for sale as well?

Evening all, the alleycat rallye specials 13x6 I've got on my Firenza came off a Midget and are definitely 4x4"pcd as they had a spell on one of my Mini's before the Vauxhall had a turn. If you wanted to be double sure, I suppose you could take a 4x4" hub with you when you went to view the wheels

Thanks - that's the plan if the seller ever answers my email.

Pretty sure Midget wheels are a 4 x 4" Pitch Circle Diameter,which means they will fit,although they're a bit on the narrow side compared to viva rostyles so would look a bit wimpy imho; my Midget has Rostyles fitted standard and standard tyres which are only 145's

The Midget Rostyles currently have 155's on them - not sure of the profile, but the tyres will be changed anyway. So I will play with sizes to see what's possible.
