Hi all,
does anyone out there have 3 steel 14" caravan/trailer wheels with the HT HG HK Holden stud pattern that are surplus to requirements?
I particularly want the caravan type wheels which DO NOT have the pressings for holding the hubcaps, they are a plain rim.
I have tried the caravan parts suppliers but they no longer stock them apparently. I have some Holden ones to swap if required.
Cheers, Leigh.

ROH still make the HK wheels but unsure if they are the ones you want. They are available new through some tyre dealers but not direct from ROH. The distributor in QLD is TOP Tyres who could tell you who can supply them down there. Recently I got some for customers in 13 inch and then had a choice of 14 x 5 inch or 14 x 6 inch.

My understanding is that the only HK/T/G rims available are the spoked Sunraisia type. They make Ford or HQ pattern in a plain steel but not the early Holden pattern.
Can anyone confirm this?

The HK style wheels are definately available new as I have sold several sets in the past two months. The 13 inch will suit most early Holden 13 inch (including disc brake front ends) and the 14 inch come in both the 14x5 and 14x6. We went the 14x6 for this HK panel van because the customer wanted a wide white wall so we fitted 205/75x15 Maxxis white walls to them which should look even better soon as he is fitting HK Monaro wheel trims.
These definately are 5x108 pcd which is early Holden. If you run into problems finding them interstate send me a pm or I can supply them from our shop on the northside of Brisbane.

Hi Leigh & Dave,
I used Volvo wheels on my Jailbar, using HK bolt pattern. They have a lot more inwards offset than Holden. I even tried them (6" wide)on the back of an EH, & they just cleared everything. You could drive it OK, but it looked weird to me sitting high with big diameter wheels.
They dont have hubcap attachments, so would be clean looking. Several different hole cutout shapes with the different model Volvos also.
Not much, but it might help.

If you decide you want the new wheels and aren't in a hurry just let me know as Dave from Treasured Transport was up at work last week picking up tyres for someone down south so there is an option to get them to you.

Sorry guys,
Dont want Volvo rims, just the plain caravan ones would be fine. If no one has any lying about might go with some new ones.
I will recheck locally Rod, if I cant find any I will contact you.

If you find some second hand ones be sure to closely inspect them around the valve hole as many we have changed tyres on have rusted badly there. In a best scenario we can sometimes fit a tube but many rims have been dumped because of this.
I'll check the price and availability on the new ones and look after you on price as I owe you a favour for directing me to Dave to transport the Sunbeam.
