OK, you Healey guys are sharp I already got a email today, noting the wheel in the picture is 4 lug bolt pattern, We have the Platinum (silver) 15x6 in stock in undrilled bolt pattern, and we CNC drill them for what bolt pattern is needed for a certain application for no extra cost, we CNC drill them and install the steel taper inserts for the lug nuts, we do alot of this type of stuff, for example we did Tim Suddard's (Classic Motorsport Magazine) Sunbeam Tiger, we do alot of special applications, bottom line if we have a size and offset that will work for a given application we can drill the bolt pattern. Here's a photo of the VTO Classic in a 5 bolt pattern, we did this drilling on our CNC machine, this is the sort of thing we do almost everyday. We're all LBC people and own British cars and all but one of us race LBCs, so we're one of you guys
I've been very happy with my Superlite Spline drive wheels. I have a couple sets, for both my Avon's rain tires and my standard Hoosier Vintage TD's. You do need to re-torque the rear connecting bolts on occasion though.
The Superlite in spline drive was my baby, I worked with the engineers at Performance to get the offset right for inside mounted adapters, which meant new molds and new wheels just for that purpose. It was ton of work, a big investment and to be trueful with you, wasn't a great seller, so for now with our wheels, VTO, making a spline drive is not a big priority, what research showed us was 9 out of 10 guys with a spoke wheel cars wanted new spokes not alloy knock offs, maybe one of these days we'll pursue that again, but for now, no immediate plans to do so.
