Unfortunately I don’t have any of the original 3.5” wheels.

I found a space saver wheel on eBay which on the face of it seemed to be ideal. From a Jaguar XJ with an 18” rim, 112 pcd, fitted with 135/80 profile Pirelli space saver tyre. The total diameter close to current wheels, and quite a lot less bulky and light. Unfortunately the pcd dimensions are slightly out - perhaps only 2mm between centres, but enough so that it won’t go on. Back to the drawing board.
