Am guessing they were 15" alternatives to the TRX390s ( expensive tyres). I remember seeing this actual car on duty in the 80s and noticing the wheels were different , it was a 2.8i. Also available for Rovers (pic borrowed from Trigger), have seen them on Met Police Rovers. I’m pretty sure they’re run flats, or at least special rims that don’t throw the tyre off in a high speed blowout. Possibly even a later design of the Dunlop Denovo rim, they were available on SD1s and the P6 Denovo wheel wasn’t used as far as I’m aware. Could be Avon safety rims as the design is similar to those used on HP Firenzas. Unlikely to be just a normal 15” substitute for the TRX as they’d just have used 14” alloys or as most Police spec Granny’s, 14” steels.
