Diamler SP250
The Daimler SP250 came from the factory with 15-inch steel disc wheels measuring 15x4.5 inches - pretty narrow by today's standards but typical for late '50s British sports cars. These wheels used a 4x4.75-inch bolt pattern (4x120.65mm) and were typically fitted with 165HR15 crossply tires. The factory steel wheels were simple stamped affairs, often hidden under full wheel covers or hubcaps bearing the Daimler fluted radiator grille motif.
For your SP250, our VTO vintage aluminum wheels offer a significant upgrade in both looks and performance. The factory 4x120.65mm bolt pattern matches perfectly with our catalog, and you can stick close to stock diameter with our 15x6, 15x6.5, or 15x7 options for that period-correct appearance. Want to go bigger? Our 16x7 and 16x8 wheels will give your Dart a more aggressive stance while maintaining that classic aluminum wheel aesthetic.
The SP250 was Daimler's attempt at cracking the American sports car market, competing with Triumph and MG but with Daimler's refined V8 power. Despite its fiberglass body quirks and that distinctive 'Dart' styling, it's gained serious collector appeal over the decades. These cars are finally getting the recognition they deserve, and a set of proper vintage-style aluminum wheels really transforms the whole character of the car.

Frequently Asked Questions
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What's the factory bolt pattern on a Daimler SP250? | The Daimler SP250 uses a 4x4.75-inch bolt pattern, which converts to 4x120.65mm in metric. This matches perfectly with VTO Wheels' 4x120.65mm bolt pattern option in our vintage aluminum wheel lineup. |
| What VTO Wheels sizes fit the Daimler SP250? | For stock replacement, our 15x6 wheels are perfect. Popular upgrades include 15x6.5, 15x7 for a wider stance, or step up to 16x7 and 16x8 for a more modern look while keeping that vintage aluminum wheel style. All sizes work with the SP250's 4x120.65mm bolt pattern. |
| Do I need hub-centric rings for VTO Wheels on my SP250? | Most likely yes. The Daimler SP250 has a specific hub bore diameter, and our wheels are manufactured with a larger universal bore to fit multiple applications. We'll provide the correct hub-centric rings to ensure a perfect, vibration-free fit when you place your order. |
| What offset should I run on my Daimler SP250? | For the SP250's narrow track width, you'll want to stay in the +10mm to +25mm range from our available -7mm to +38mm offset options. This keeps the wheels properly positioned in the wheel wells while giving you the stance you're after without clearance issues. |
