Hmmm Wheels

Ok the more i look the more i confuse myself!

I am after a new set of wheels for the 75 once the work is all completed but im going round in circles here, the sort of wheel im after is a 15/16" split rim design with at least a 1" dish to it but preferably more....ive not seen any 75's with them so dont know how it will look but i got my fingers crossed....however people ive spoke to have confused me about offset, pcd spiggot size etc, i know what they all are but as im after a dish to the wheel im assuming the offset will have to be different? if so which way?

Any help will be apreciated or if you know somewhere which sells the sort of wheel im after that would be a bonus


Please help me and my friend Karl raise money for ABF

Just checked the price.....looks to be about £298 per wheel plus vat for that wheel above in a 16" x 7" assuming the 75 takes a 7" wheel, anyone know?

I've got 7s on mine but 15inch revolutions. On alfahaholics track/fast road suspension

so providing you adjust profile of tyre to dia don't see a problem

if you fancy revolutions I have a refurbed set of originals I might be tempted to sell. Cost £95 a wheel to refurb - like new (well better in fact)

there is also the problem of clearing the front brake caliper, my 17in OZs, despite being made for Alfa, (although probably FWD cars) catch on the caliper, needed a 5mm spacer to clear it.
