Any info would be great.

Has anyone put these on a mk2 punto & do they look good? If so would like to see pic.

I've never seen them on a mk2...mk2 alloys from the HGT and presumably sporting are 15" so you'd be going smaller.
Incidentally abarth alloys on a non-abarth car.....ewwwwwwwwwwwww

The wheels are the same size as standard rim's & sticking with manufacture rim's won't affect the insurance if the worst happens!
And the insurance company want's to be funny about it like that was when I had my gold mk3 2.2 gti limited edition and wrote if off!

That's insurance for you.

I've never had a problem putting manufacturer items onto lower spec cars with regards to insurance.

Personally I'd try to get mk2 punto sporting alloys....the hgt abarth wheels i was never keen on...but the sporting are ok. not keen on the cinq/sei wheels myself.

Not even for £60 set of 5 with pucker rubber!?!? That's how much I can get them for when matey gets back from holiday.

Sounds like you need to speak to a modification friendly insurer.
