I think that they look smart with Cosmic's fitted. Try e'Bay, as they have not been produced for years.

Personaly I like the original GKN-Lotus Brand wheels:
These are 5.5" rims and accomodate 185 front and 205 rear tires (that's the setup I run on my TCS)
You can find an old set on E-Bay or one of the usual suspects (I know Ray at RD Enterprises has a 2nd hand set) and have them refinished, or buy them new (Bean used to carry them or you can order them from Banks in the U.K. which would probably be cheaper even with the freight).
I have a set of American Racing 4" rims that were on the car when I bought it. These are nice and light but a bit narrow for my likes:
There are probably other options too. Anything that fits a Triumph Spitfire/GT6/Herald will work on the Europa- although check the off-set which might be different for some of these. The stud pattern is the same though (as is for the TR7).
Also the Lotus Tire servy may be helpful (also gives the wheels folks are using).
