Alfa 166 alloy wanted:

Hey guys...and alfa girl!

Re: Alfa 166 alloy wanted:

(in Ireland) I have 4 of 17" alloys these sitting in the garage:

They need some refurb. A couple are a bit buckled.

Do you have any good ones in that set of four?

How much did you pay for your new wheels!

The tyre place thought I was nuts to change them, so I guess they can't be that bad. Mind you, they are all a bit scuffed - old tyres did not have rim protection lip on them.

New wheels are 17" Zender Sienas. Got them though gazzella.cc and then an Irish reseller. Bought two spares when I discovered they had stopped making them (maybe temporarily, maybe permanently) for the 166 fitment.

I have just replaced all the tyres. The tyre place says there is play in the steering rack (wouldn't balance front wheels), but Alfa independent thinks otherwise. I may need to get the bottom wishbones done anyway - one front upper w/bone is on backorder.
