Not new here but haven't posted since I upgraded my SE Elan a few years ago.
Before considering refurbishing my 15" alloys given their poor value (and look IMO), I had a look to other wheels.
The only one I like much better are the ones used on the M200, which are obviously period correct, which is important to me.
Probably 16" but not that sure; maybe their design leads to a totally different perception on the same 15" basis.
They look pretty similar to the OZ crono from the Venturi 260 LM (sorry I'm French :oops: ) but does anybody have any information on these ?

PS : actually using the Hi Spec 15", I was also wondering if only the disc changed between the 15" and 16" conversion kits, or callipers as well ?

Many other French owners within the Club Lotus France hang around here, and we support you !!
Thyank you for alle the resources :cheers:

I learned just now that the former owner of the M200 had the wheels machined from a forged block aluminum! I also know the price, but am afraid to write it down, as my Elan is allready haunted :shock:

I always thought that they were specially commissioned (because of the 60mm offset) oz chronos wheels.
