Thanks for the above.
One last thing - you have not quoted the part number which should be stamped on the wheel centre.
The part number will confirm that they are the correct wheels once and for all.

No part no. stamp on my rims BUT def. Wellers - something which they have never questioned.
I have been in touch with John ("midget") & his Weller rims do not have a production date stamped on them so I assume Weller have altered their marking processes over time.
FINAL UPDATE:
I give up!
I get constant stonewalling from Weller, who are not remotely interested in the fact that they have produced some rims that don't accept the hubcaps.
They are:
...too busy to take someone off the production-tech. floor to speak to me,
...are endlessly "reminding" me that I am not the original purchaser & the rims are out of warranty so I have no legal comeback,
...adamant they have never heard of an issue,
...repeating that if I sent them the rims they may get time to look at them but will not say what they may or not actually do with them, etc, etc........
The above is the decision of company's MD, Alan Lowe.
I really thought that Weller would want to look into a production issue & also would help owners of their products in the interests of public relations.....wrong!
