1977 Alfa Giulia - chapter closed.

I found a set of 205 GTI 1.6 nearby enough (hour-and-a-half drive, but fun roads so it doesn't count), for €70, with one of the rims painted black with silver lip which should look good!


I've found my dream wheel set though.



Maserati Biturbo wheels, 6x14, but 4x98... I'm starting to wonder if it's possible to somehow swap the discs to some Alfetta ones? They'd be 4x98, and I'd have plenty more choices of cool wheels.

Thanks! The Cortina's still with me, I'm driving it to Totti's place in August

Seller's asking €300 for them with good Michelin tyres fitted, that's a bit steep but I guess they're rare. Here's the ad.
The problem with the adaptors is that they work as spacers, which means they'll upset the offset (that's not nicely put but hey), which apparently is ET0 already.

Let's just say it's more of a long-term project

edit: I found information on the front disc sizes, here's the comparison:

That doesn't help my suffering! I appreciate that you lowered it a lot more at the front than at the back, it makes things easier Aggressive but discreet stance, pretty sweet. I can't imagine how happy I'd be with the BWA wheels for when I want a racing look, and Biturbo wheels when I just want an elegant car.

I'm a little bothered that my previous car needed massive negative offset, and that this one needs massive positive offset. I was delighted to buy an Alfa because it meant 4x98 wheels, and I can't even have that. I'll have to take many measurements...

edit: waiiiit!!



Right size, right PCD, €100, but a little common (although very nice, especially with the gold/silver colour scheme I'd put on).




Perfection, but 4x100 and only two wheels (€75 for the pair).


I've found the brand of the 504 alloys, they're Delta Mics too!



but the 504 PCD is a stupid 4x140, that's too bad.


I guess I'll call the seller of the BBS-replica set...

hairnet: It's actually this set that showed me that Biturbo wheels were the right size... I was gutted about the 4x98, as you can imagine.

ettorebugatti: This really, really is lovely. Exactly the kind of look I'd like. I'll have to try and find out how he pulled it off, perhaps re-drilling the discs?

I'm asking a question about re-drilling solid spacers here!

ZOMG - those wheels are amazing!
