One Carb Or Two?

Mini wheels are 4" pcd. The same as Vivas, Imps, Triumph Herald and derivatives, Morris Minor and derivatives. Beware that some Metros at least are 100mm pcd and therefore don't fit properly. The studs will have to bend for the wheel nuts to tighten let, even if the wheels fit over the studs. The wheel offset is also horribly wrong.
If changing to other wheels, make sure the nut fitting angle is correct. Eg, if using Midget or Imp wheels on a mini, you have to use midget or similar nuts.
Fiestas, like most Fords will be 4.25" pcd.

They fit, but are 4x100 PCD when a mini is 4x4". So as Mr Ivor Badger said they wont be on right.

What about wobble nuts or what ever they are called? (Ok they aren't to be advised, but people use them)

No way, unless you have something to center the wheel correctly (the Mini's wheels are centred via the studs/nuts). Otherwise the wheel might rotate 'off centre' - not good...
With correct centering - why not? Lots of people use them with success.
