ukoldschool · 15-04-2007

8.5 is a little too wide.... the standard alfa 18" rims are 8" wide. So I guess youll need to use a 5mm spacer to get the clearance correct.
The tyre sizee (225/40/18) is fine.

Personally I wouldnt touch 5x100 PCD whels as ive seen 'wobble bolts' break before, but I know plenty of peopel use them and are happy.
