just a quick wheel Q for you lot. I should be picking up my 75 TS this week. I see from the eBay ad that it has rubbish-looking steels with halfords wheeltrimz on. What other alfas can donate a set of wheels to smarten it up a bit? I guess as a G-reg 4-cyl model it will have 4-stud wheels not the 5-studs of the V6 and LE jobs. Will wheels from a FWD alfa (146, 155 etc) go on or will the offset be all to pot? Factual responses only please, no guessing! Cheers all!  |

If it is 4 stud, it'll be 4x98, like loadsa other Italian stuff, the best I think tho, is the Lancia Delta, the 8 valve version with these wheelz..  |

All TSparks and V6s are 5-stud.
This means you can't use a lot of older FWD wheels - certainly nothing from a 33, 145 or 146 even most 155 wheels won't fit (can't remember if all widebody 155s got 5-studs).
164 wheels don't fit either (they're the only 5-stud Alfa that doesn't have the same wheels as the rest).
So, that leaves you with a choice of 5-stud 155 wheels, 156, GTV / Spider wheels. Not sure about 166 wheels - I'd guess they're the same stud pattern and offset anyway.
What it needs is a set of black 5-spoke Revolutions.

Twinspark is right. 166 wheels wont fit - different PCD heres a piccy of my 75 with later GTV/spider alloys on it;  theres a lil modification you need to do to these to get them to fit. the ones for the front wheels need to have 1mm taken off the centre hole (5mins with dremel) - to get them to clear the hubs, also add a 5mm spacer to the rears, to clear the curved lip on the hubs. I really like these on the 75 - not too modern, still Alfa, & not to big to jolly pain in the backside the ride - had mine fitted with 195/45/16 tyres to keep the speedo right - the cars gone, so if you want these wheels & tyres.....still got them, with the mod & spacer.......make me an offer. or my old 3 litre with Black & polished revos  |

Those GTV wheels look great JATMT.
I could certainly be interested in your wheels, they are just what mine needs. I don't really do 'offers' though..... If you have a price in mind let me know, maybe by PM?

I purposefully didnt sell them on e-bay or such, so they can go on another 75 sometime in the future (like some other nice 75 parts I've got) - so not fussed if they don't go - would probably want circa £200 as the tyres are good as well.
