MX-5 and Steel Winter Wheels - is this possible?

In preparation for winter I'm trying to find some steel winter wheels shod with winter tyres but can't seem to find any that meet the spec of the standard fitment wheels (195/50R16 6.5J ET55 4x100 54.1CB). Can you please advise if you know of any other car manufacturers that have used this size?

Check with www.tyremen.co.uk/ A set of Alutecs may actually be cheaper than a set of steels.

Excellent handling makes it fun to drive. 1.5-litre model works very well on uneven UK roads. 2.0 as quick as many drivers would ever want. Well-equipped for the money.
