I've seen some decent Fiat Coupe 16's and have looked through the minefield of information about wobbly nuts/wobble nuts but havent found a solid answer... will they fit on grande punto?? I am pretty sure they are 4x98 and the punto is 4x100 i think.

Seen the Coupe wheels on older puntos and think they would look quality in gloss black + new springs on my car.
 
Im unsure as to whether wobble bolts are JUST for helping fit larger fitments to smaller hubs (4x100 wheels on older 4x98 hubs). So theres a chance they may not work fitting a smaller PCD on a larger hub. OR I could just be wrong and you get 2mm of play either way?? These wheels could look good but Id think you would need coilovers and spacers as there not very wide wheels?

The GP is distinguished by Maserati styling, & I can’t see where a backward step to Centro Stile FIAT design of the 1990s would `improve’ the design or view – that is, if you should overcome the fitting problems.

Perhaps someone will photoshop it - to show how good (or awful) the view.
 
The PCD will be fine, with wobbly bolts you get 2mm of play either way.

What might be a problem is the Centre Bore. If the Coupe wheels centre bore is smaller than 56.6mm then they won't fit without redrilling. If its larger you'll need spigot rings.
 
quick photoshop, what do you reckon... worth it?
