After a lot of sleep (part of my health issues) managed to get enough energy to swop the current alloys for the MGF wheels, I bought yesterday, early this evening. The holes are bigger than the Marina studs so will definitely go the larger Freelander studs idc. No problem at rear but tyre JUST touches the lock washer on upright at the front. In fact if the lock washer edge was either trimmed / ground or bent down then there would be no clearance problem. I reckon 10mm spacer will be more than sufficient even with lock washer left untouched.
Anyway IMO the steel wheels look far better than the KN Minilite copies. Unfortunately they are 14" so my 15" Volvo P1800 trim rings won't fit
For hubcaps might do the same as the 2CV - attach with central bolt rather than fitting "buttons" around the rim. A simple saddle type bent piece of steel with captive nut could attach to unused holes between the wheel bolts for such a central hubcap bolt.
