Sorry but I don't accept the name Rostyle for Mini S wheels.
The name "Rostyle" was only used by Leyland on the GT and never used by Leyland on the Mini S or Innocenti.

The one thing about Rostyle wheels is the 8 holes, no matter what size wheel.

MGB Rostyles..

I would only call them poor copies of Rostyle if I was pushed. 8)

I consider them different too, but the S (Firsats) are a lot more common over here, and somehow they have got the 'ROstyle' name here in Aus.

Most people on this forum think of Clubman S rims as 'Rostyle' I agreed to differ and agreed to compromise and refer to them as "Rostyle style" :lol:

Am I annoying anyone yet! :? :lol: :lol:

Pass me that Anorak, while I tighten my original hose clips.,,,,,,,,,, :roll:

:shock: 8)

I've just been given a Leyland advert from 1975. It says that the Mini S has larger pedals. Were the base models fitted with the older square b rake and clutch pedals?
