Hey blokes,
Are the wheels on this car from a Renault 12?
They're 14" and appear to offset less than factory L series wheels, making the track a little wider. Owner said to be very careful they stay tight, as there's some minor interference with the hub/locating ring diameter. I'm inclined to look at the nuts very carefully on that note.

Cheers Toonga,
Turns out I found a brand on them, they're UK made Cosmic mags and I wish they were 10" for my mini!
I have machined a 10x94mm recess to get them onto the hubs nicely but one has sadly been vandalized where the steel seat for the wheel nut has been missing. We still have 4 rims though, they don't fit under the bonnet so I'm likely to use a bog standard wheel there in any case. I only wish the bu@@ered rim wasn't also one of the straightest ones.
They're getting a blast and some new paint now, I think the trick then is to sand and polish the face shiny afterward.
Don't have spares do you?
