both dont fit.

The PCD on a mini is 106 IIRC massively bigger than a cento, avoid both sets

if you are wanting that look the best set to go for what is compatibale for a cento is an alloy wheel made by compomotive called the ML or MO (its one or other), this is what you might have seen on the cinq you saw.
 
Mini pcd's dont line up with the cinq. They do fit (at a serious push!) but are unsafe. Trust me as i've tried it being i have something like 16 mini wheels (road, off road and slick tyres) in the garage.

Cheers, Josh
 
Would you still get a decent amount of suspension travel or be able to lower it without them rubbing though?

Also iirc 4 stud volks are 4x100 so their wheels would fit with wobbly bolts, someone correct me if I'm wrong

yep and yep, volkswagon wheels wheel need to be machined and spigots fitted though as the pcd is larger on fiat than vw, i run ats classics with spacers, wobbley bolts and am lowered 40 front 60 rear, and travels fine and they dont scrub.

see do u mean centre bore (fiat = 58.1) rather than pcd, as pcd is just 4x100 ?

I were thinking that too - a bit of Googling says the fiat centre bore is 1mm bigger... That said you could find some wheels you like somewhere like dubmeister, then ask if they could get the same style in but ones that would fit without being modified.

Good news on the wheels tho Whiley, I thought the outer edges of the tyres would rub where the arches curve downwards - I had been considering some dished alloys but they would look daft without lowering, but that probably wouldn't agree with the driveway and the speed bumps and flow plates I have to drive over most days

cheers ming i did mean centre bore not pcd doh, as for the tyres issue, thats why u get slightly stretched tyres to compensate for that and add to the euro look lol :D id go for southwest tyres over dubmeister though as the people who work there, will be able to tell you what needs to be done rather than just bull****ting you to sell you the wheels.

Pity, that they are 101.6mm [4"] for Mini fitment

They can be bought from, and are ok for a road car - www.rebelsracing.com , £95 each
