 I like long walks, especially when they're taken by people I don't like. |

Loads of options!
HotWire is right, Big Triumphs (2000, TR3-6), MGB, Scimitar, Lotus Eclat, Datsun, older Toyotas (RWD). Most cool retro-J wheels will fit!

Can't you try TR7 / 8 alloys?
What about Stag alloys?

1984/85 Rx7's are 4x114.3 with a 40mm offset (roughly)
200sx is another common one, and Nissan Silvia's

oh and if its for a Marina they aren't 4.5" pcd as we tried my spare rx7 wheels on Dave's Marina coupe rally car and they were miles off.
He's running Montego steelies now which are the same PCD and fit perfectly.
I seem to recall its 3 3/4"

but if 4x114.3 and low offset is what you are after I've just rememberd that toyota corolla GTs (AE86) have the right PCD and a low offset (aftermarket wheels are typically zero offset or very low) good luck finding some that are cheap though.

I'm pretty sure that your Mazda is 4x120mm.
Regarding the Marina thing...almost all Marinas (and Itals) are 3.75" pcd with the exception of some commercials which had uprated braking.
The Morris Minor boys used to use those brakes so they could run A60 steels which looked identical to the standard rims. With A60 wheels on a Celica or MGB axle out back you could have a virtually stock looking Minor.
