Just done a deal with uczmeg and I will be having a set of 18 inch Horseshoe alloys! Get in.
Unfortunately I will have to wait a few weeks until he has the new S wheels fitted.

Can't wait to get these on my 159!

Well done mate! They make a massive difference.

Money well spent.

Heh heh good point I'll get that sorted soon as (IMHO of course) the 19's are working a treat, visually and dynamically!

Glad you like them - both our cars are looking pretty fine now

My 1750 TBI with 19" 8c compeizione.

Ufortunately, I have not driven the car with this alloys. The day I went to pick up my new car from the dealer, the snow came and they have put on 17" and winter tyres. So I'am just waiting for the snow to go away.....

Is that Brera finished in 8c Red or is that standard Alfa Rosso?

Lovely rich, deep colour.

Looks great.

Wow. I hope that car and engine combination is as good as it sounds! Lovely looking car.
Is this the 1st 1750 Brera on the forum...??

I've got those wheels, now I just want the TBI to go with it!

[Oggy_GTA]

TBI isn't specified on the Alfa UK car configurator. Is it available in the UK yet?

So far my conclusion is, YES. It is a wast improvement compared to 2.2 JTS.

This modell is early one. It was used by the german importer to exibit this new modell. Therefor it is well equippet, f.ex.with carbon interior.

As I said, I just wait to see all the snow disappear, so that I can put on these 19" and then really try it out...

[EiK]

Pictures was taken when it was newly polished. I will just wait to springtime to see if I can it as shiny as this......

Now they look really good - best looking aftermarket wheels I've seen on a 159/Brera/Spider

[uczmeg]

The good news. The 19" S wheel are on my car!

The bad news. The wheel nuts on the 19s are not recessed like they are on the 18" horseshoes, so the rustyness is very apparent!

Must do something fast. Where can I get grey wheel nut covers they don't seem very common?

Lots of black and chrome ones on ebay, I think the new vauxhalls have metalic dark grey caps

Yes, heard the same. But can I find anywhere to buy them? No.

[W4RDT]

I know I was looking for em to, ended up just getting the chrome which look ok. I can always paint them at a later date

You have the grey S wheels too?

They are quite dark, so was tempted to get black, but I'll take your word for it!

Did you get any particular ones? Looks like there are two depths, I assume you got the shorter ones?
