Wheel Spacers

I have some universal (I think) spacers on the front of my 156, this is because the wheels are the 17" multispokes and without them the wheels rub when cornering.

Now I don't particularly trust these spacers because they are hard to get on right and often don't look properly aligned, plus all the weight of the wheels will be on the bolts.

Can someone recommend me which ones to replace them with, the spacer is pretty much flush to the hub centre, can anyone tell me what size these are? I would get them off and measure them but it is a complete pain to do and takes about 35 minutes to put the wheels on.

You really need to get hubcentric wheel spacers - these fit exactly over the hub and have their own 'hub' which the wheel fits onto. About the minimum thickness you can get these is 10mm.

I ran 15mm hub centric spacers for about 2-3 years without problem

If you only need a 3-4mm spacer then normal type spacers will fit - Alfa actually have ones (I think for the GTV) which fit perfectly on the hub

Are they Alfa rims?
If they are, they should fit fine without any problems.
