I've got the opportunity to get my wheels powder coated for £25 per rim (which I thought was pretty good?) but I've got the problem of replacement wheels while my alloys are getting sorted.

What cheap wheels will fit on my roadster? (cheaper the better!!) I've tried to search, but cant find anything

As I'm only gonna use them while my original wheels get power coated, cheap as possible.
If I had another car to use, I'd just leave my MR2 on axel stands, but unfortunately I don't have that option   s:( :( s:(

Soooo....is it possible to nick wheels from a Yaris/Corolla/Celica that would fit the MR2??

I just need to find some cheap steelies or something while my wheels get powder coated....or alternatively a pair of 16 inch roadster wheels to purchase!

if the center bore is smaller can it not be filled with a spigot ring?

If its just to sit on without being driven i doubt it matters too much. If you want something drivable and legal could end up costing you more than its worth

Yaris/Corolla - you'd not have the correct stagger - dangerous
Celica - IIRC they are 5 stud

Cheapest option is to buy markiii's wheels, use them while you need them and then sell them when you've done.
