Let me join the discussion...

First of all someone quoted the wrong orig. wheel dimensions for the murena.
They correct dimensions are:
14x6" ET28

Also would people please incl. their offset when suggesting wheels that could be use.

I was looking to use 15x6" on the front and 16x6.5" rear.
Therefore I have bought a set of 16x6.5" ET25 that I was planning to use, but the rims are no longer availible in 15".
The ET25 offset results in pretty much the perfect fit with the 6.5" width.

If anyone are looking for new wheels, you can use the Fiat Barchetta as reference, as they have roughly the same data as our Murena's...

They are for sale in case anyone in Denmark are looking from new wheels?
It's the SMC type Z in silver...

looking for 2.000 DKK (270€) for the 4 rims.
They are brand new and incl. mounting bolts etc.

Should fit nicely with the following choice of tires:
Front                                  Rear
185/50-16  (+2.4%)           195/50-16 (+2%)
195/40-16  (-2.6%)            205/50-16 (+3.7%)
195/45-16   (+0.75%)        205/45-16 (+0.2%)

Regards,
Valdemar

No, the height is of origin to the rear (Front is also with the height of origin)

Very nice too. I think I see something lurking behind them that's looks a bit cutting edge?

How about some pictures of them front and rear?

Hi Darren.

Wheels look good.  :D
Tell me what kind of brake caliper is it that I see on one of the photos. Did you have to make any modifications to the mounting points and disk?

Regards.
Jon.
