The 15" 740 wheels are always a good fit and allow you to run more of a performance tire (195/60-15 or similar). I don't believe you'll run into any clearance problems with 14's though. To my knowledge no 240 model has any wheel clearance issues with the exception being that some alloys require you to take off the screw/locating pin for the wheel and replace it with something shorter (like a regular M6 bolt). One set of my Virgos has deep enough wells cast into it to clear these pins; one set doesn't. Go figure.
Anyways... you can often find a really good deal on 15" alloys from a 760, if you happen to like those patterns or wheel designs, and they'll all fit just fine.
