Hi all. Looking to upgrade my wheels. From the photo attached they appear to be the standard 14” ones. Previous owner advised he had the caps but they fell off sometime ago.
Looking to know the fitment of these if I wanted to upgrade to alloys what size, fitment and offset am I looking at to replace them? Also if I want to refurb them what are the correct chrome hubs I should be looking at? As some appear to be smooth and some domed?

you have a what we call a 'wide five' wheel, so you'd be needing the chrome domed ones (the better looking ones). As for alloys, well you might want to think about braking performance and whether you stick with drums on the front. that could change your wheels and tyres. My advice - start slowly, get it running nice, safe reliable and comfortable, then think about how you want to make it "better" (IMO better doesn't alway include alloys....)
