Good to see another Welsh member on here.

Iirc, mini wheels don't fit because, they are 101.6mm PCD and yours is 95.25mm PCD.

Any of the standard Metro alloys will fit, 5,6,7 spokes and the Cross Spokes. Have a quick search I am sure you will find some.

Other than those, http://www.metropower.org.uk/portal/default.asp?id=188&mnu=188.

Location: Ely Cardiff		im a bit confused

as these wheels i found here are 4 x 100

and there off a metro

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ALLOYS-METRO-ROVER-100-X-4-/160997274036?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Rims_Car_Wheels_ET&hash=item257c2f71b4

and some wheel guide site said my metro

was 101.6 x 4

but someone else has said 95.25 x 4

so thats 3 different sizes

what ones will 100% fit my car

and will a 100x4 fit mine..?

Location: Bromley, Kent		A series Metros share PCD with minis, however a lot of mini wheels have crazy offsets.

K series Metros share PCD with Maestros, MGFs and old Triumphs. 95.25
