Iv had a few on previous cars. They do some really good wheels. I have gone for a Momo course on my Elan though.

Quick release boss to pop the wheel off the stock hub.

I have the same wheel on my car - bolts straight onto the stock SE boss. You will then need a rubber shroud, I just bought the cheapest Momo kit I could find on fleabay and used the shroud from that.

Yeah pretty sure it will be the same. As a rule Momo, Omp, Sparco, Raid, Richbrook, and Mountney all share the same bolt pattern.

If you can find a Momo hub for the Isuzu Impulse you will discover that the shaft taper & splines all match to the Lotus (either Elan or Esprit). This tidbit has been used to solve a bunch of problems for me.

I have a momo quick release that bolts to the original hub that you can mount a omp or momo wheel on. You would need to make a cowl for the original hub yourself though as that comes off as part of the wheel. Can have it for £25 posted :D
