Spitfire Spitfire Wheels

Are all years of Spitfire wheels interchangeable?
I can get a set of pre 1970 wheels cheap and want to make sure they will fit on a 1975 car.
The 75 has 2 wheels that are not spitfire wheels and the other 2 are black and I want silver.
Thanks
 
Mark- How do you think the stock TR8 wheels would look on it. Specially with tires that only have about 5000 miles on them?

Mk. 1 and 2 cars used 13 x 3.5. Mk. 3, Mk. VI, and 1500 used 13 x 4.5. 1980 only used 13 x 5.

To be PAINFULLY accurate :smile:, of the Mk3 range, only the 1970 model year Mk3 used 4.5" steel wheels (borrowed from the GT6). However, the optional wire wheel was always a 4.5" wide wheel.
 
:thumbsup: Eric nice daily driver.
Those wheels look great. Don see my PM.
