General Coupe wheels on a stilo
Yes, very probably.
Fiat tends to use a 4x98mm PCD and a 58.1mm centre bore, and both the Stilo and Coupe have these sizes.
You need to check the offset though. This is the number following the letters "ET..." which will be stamped on the back of the wheel.
Stilo uses quite a large offset; around 38-43, depending on your model... and Coupe is not far off at around 40-44... but particularly on the larger wheel sizes, offset could be 35mm.
Sticking ET35 on your Stilo will make the wheels "stick out" more... which a) might look a bit Chav.. and b) might rub the arches on full lock, particularly if you have lowered the car or if you fit wide tyres (e.g. more than 215 section).
On the other hand, if the new wheels are ET 44 then you'll almost certainly be fine, although again, fitting a wide tyre migth start to get a bit close to the suspension on the inside.
If the wheels have tyres on them, even useless/punctured ones, you'll be able to fit them just to see how the tyres fit, before you buy new tyres of the same or bigger size.
