If you look in the back of Road&Track, Car and Driver
etc. you will find ads for a couple of places that
specialize in refubishing/refinishing aluminum wheels.
You might try getting a quote from them on refinishing,
and they could probably even duplicate the original
brushed/machined finish on the wheels.
When I was running LE wheels, I mounted 185/70-14
Goodyear Eagle GT+4s. They fit well and looked proper
on the car, and for what it's worth it appears this is
the size the factory supplied on the LE. The Dunlop
D60A2 is available in that size, fairly cheap, Consumer
Reports said good things about them, and of course MG
and Dunlop go way back together...
