Hi,

I've already looked through the wheel dictionary but to no avail. I brought a set of alloys on ebay, that didnt come with wheel nuts, so upon looking for some that will fit, i found that i need to know the kind of wheel I have.

The alloys themselves don't have any markings on them, except for "JIL" on the rim, the centre caps are removable and they have a lip around the edge of it. Also the rim has a lip around the outside, and the inside of the centre (between the spokes) is rounded, looking at all of these facts nothing seems to be the same on the directory, so hopefully someone can help me out.

Picture is attached.

I brought the set of 4 for £160 including the Yokos that are on them, and they have plenty of tred if anyone was interested.

I was planning on replacing the caps, however according to mini spares site the originals have smaller caps than the reproduced ones, so I dont know how easy it will be to source some, however thats once I have actually got the wheels on.
