I have the standard Imola's on mine or did anyway till I changed them to 18's.  I got a puncture the other day and went to put the spare on only to find out i had an 18" spare?! Only thing I can think is that it came with optional 18's then someone sold them prior to selling the car?  Worked out for the best anyway as i'm now running 18's with a 18" spare  :pomppomp:
