    Banding steel wheels?

    I quite fancy a set of banded steel wheels for my Cortina Mk1 project. The rear is already tubbed so I have loads of room. I'm quite new to the idea of banded steel wheels, so it would be great if anyone can help with these questions;

    1) Is there a 14" or 15" steel that looks like a Lotus steel?

    2) Can the 13" of a Lotus steel centre be fitted to a 14" or 15" steel rim? (sorry if that's a daft one)

    3) Are there any road legal really wide 13" tyres. I thought Avon did a 245 or 255, but can find no info

    4) Any recommendations about where to get banding done?

    Hi,

    Avon makes the CR500 which is being replaced by the ZZS, both available in 245/50x13.
