Which single lug TR wheels are these?

Those dont look like single lug. I think that is a center cap. They look like the old HRE wheels. I like them.. alot.

It's a single lug car. I was there that day and talked to the owner about exhaust systems. Nice guy.
Note the high mirrors.

Hotshu - correct. Double high mirrors was not factory (as I understand). Some in the U.S. and Canadian market added the passenger mirror to aid in eliminating the blind spot, and installed a 2nd mirror symmetric with the driver side height.

Of course, one would have to ask where did they find the right mirror to install? It is not simply a case of modifying a left-hand mirror and mounting it on the right. They are two distinctly different shapes. Hence, the factory must have manufactured it, perhaps in anticipation of bilateral mirrors (lower in height) to be standard equipment the following year.

From what I have read the right hand mirror mounted high is not usable to the driver and was put there for the external symmetry. I wish I would have asked the owner when I was talking to him. I always wondered if it was true.

Personally, I really like the single high mirror.

 

these wheels were advertised in the early issues of forza, and i am sure elsewhere. they were made by speedline. they weren't cheap, but they look good and address the tire/wheel changes since original introduction of the tr

 

Were the early TR's sold in RHD countries (England, Japan, Oz, etc)?

 

AjayM - why didn't I think of that? You are correct. Right hand mirror on 1985-86 must have come from British/Japanese/Austrailian market production cars.

It is true. I've sat in an early Tr with 2 mirrors and, yes, the passenger side mirror is useless as the A-pillar obstructs the view from the drivers side. IMHO, adding a RHD mirror kills the look of the car. To each their own.
