Hamleto<br><br>I believe this is impossible (not advisable) because the off set is different.

Hamleto<br><br>I'm not very good with memorising figures but the ideal wheel should have 4x100mm PCD and an offset of **mm?<br><br>Help required for this figure...is it 60 guys?<br><br>Yep it appears to be +60mm...<br><br>http://www.lotuselancentral.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=wheels;action=display;num=1071491569;start=44#44<br>

60mm is on the oe wheel, but 50-40mm will do.

[hamleto]

Great wheels STEVO model??<br><br>I see MASITALY wheels,beatifoul,but I dont found its in ITALY!!!There isn't a website??<br><br>I have new tires,and I serch 15" wheels to get agressive loke to my elan <br>

17inch antera 309's<br>http://www.lotuselancentral.com/cgi-bin/yabb/YaBB.cgi?board=wheels;action=display;num=1071491569

[Sy V]

MASITALY seem to have gone out of favour here in the UK.<br>Apparently, there may be some centre bore implications to consider too.<br><br>Anyone know of our centre bore size?

[stevo]

45mm rings a bell but dont quote me.

[Scott J]

Hamleto,<br><br>Speedline do a wheel very similar to the Elise which comes with 50mm offset and fits Elan.   Wheel available in silver, gold, or white.<br><br>Think Speedline is Italian company so you should be able to find them.

I know those ones are very popular with the Vauxhall Nova/Corsa community as they come with a 49mm offset.<br>

[Scott J]

Alan,<br><br>I have 5 spoke Speedlines.  I once saw a max powered Calibra with the identical wheels.   :-[    :'(    :'( <br><br>They seem to have a wide range compatible with Vauxhall/Elan hubs.

If i remember i`ll have a measure when i take the wheel of for a bleed.<br><br>Oh that wheel base is only 10mins from me  ;D

[Scott J]

Alan,<br><br>my wheels are an older version of 2110.<br><br>The 2109c Safari, is the wheels i am after, 8 spoke design similar to Elise & BMW.   Available in JPS Gold.<br><br>speedlinecorse.co.uk<br><br>Their site quotes "Safari is highly popular with the hot hatch brigade"   Oh dear.   :-[    :-[

Hi Hamleto,<br>I have OZ Racing Super 'T's' on my SE. Size7.5in x 16in<br>100mm Stud centre diameter,45mm Offset.<br>One minor difference is that I now run on 195 x 40 x 16in tyres ( oem 205 x 45 x 15in ) but nothing catches<br>anywhere and handling does not seem to suffer.<br>Pete (aka Grandad)
