September 18, 2025Sep 18 Hi all I’m new to this forum and am in need of some help , I’m looking for a pair of wheel rims for a ty80 or even complete wheels , I’m am restoring a 1976 model , have been told I can possibly get alloy but that’s not the way I want to go with it as I want it original , any help would be appreciated as all avenues I seem to go down are a dead end 🤨
September 18, 2025Sep 18 Hey Jeff! Welcome to the forum. I just did a simple search and found several TY80 original wheels on eBay. Maybe I’m misunderstanding what you need though. Anyway, below are two links to a full rear wheel and a front. Good luck finding what you need! https://www.ebay.com/itm/256739081016?chn=ps&mkevt=1&mkcid=28&google_free_listing_action=view_item https://www.ebay.com/itm/162588017989?chn=ps&mkevt=1&mkcid=28&google_free_listing_action=view_item&srsltid=AfmBOoopomzC1tONF4ljLp0sdbSqOeiIC_rvqKKSSo1g02_aOgSIJGkJkpY Edited September 18, 2025Sep 18 by RonH Added link
September 18, 2025Sep 18 Author Appreciate that Ron , I’m looking for them in uk preferably , import taxes would make these expensive . I have seen these but will be a last resort
September 20, 2025Sep 20 I had no idea what the wheel sizes are for a TY80, but based on the eBay links above they appear to be: 16 x 1.40 15 x 1.75 Have you tried searching "16 x 1.40 steel rim"? There are results in the US. Seems likely the Chinese even make them. Edit: You would need the correct number of holes as well. Edited September 20, 2025Sep 20 by konrad
September 20, 2025Sep 20 Author They are 16x1.40 and 14x1.40 , number of holes is important as are the angles of the holes , I have see the USA wheels on eBay but I will be taking a chance on how true they are if they are better than my wheelsI , think I’ll just be patient and hope some crops up on eBay , the rear 14” I am considering using but the front is in bad shape 🤨 43 minutes ago, konrad said: I had no idea what the wheel sizes are for a TY80, but based on the eBay links above they appear to be: 16 x 1.40 15 x 1.75 Have you tried searching "16 x 1.40 steel rim"?

September 20, 2025Sep 20 Not sure if there is a misunderstanding here or not. Just to be clear, I was suggesting that you search by rim size (with other parameters as appropriate), and not just limit your search to "TY80 rims".
