Wheels for me 90

I need help, I'm getting conflicting info about fitting some Disco freestyle alloys to my 1989 90, its got drum brakes on the rear. I'v been told that the freestyles won't fit over the drums on the back. Is the right??
I'm not looking to stick outrageous tyres on it I just want to replace the the standard Rostyles. Never liked Rostyles on my MG either.

Cheers

ive been told the same thing - disco alloys don't fit properly over drums.

I was told if you put them on and force them, the taper on the drum forces the dish out in the alloy, making it prone to fractures.

I got them on me 1990 90...

and they are fine. No mods as far as i know!

Yeah, to be honest it's in a stupid position and i'm lookin at gettin rid of it as soon as i can work out how best to re-flow the air intake for a snorkel.

Also alloys are **** really, i would much rather have some decent 8's or steels but the tryes are nearly new so got a bit of a way to go before i can justify the change - then the alloys will be straight on fleabag!
