156 GTA Q2 SW

Re: GTA 18's

Hi all - I'm not sure how much interest there is in the Alfa 18" (as used on the GT and last of the GTA's) - however I have them on my GTA and would like to get 2 for spare.

I've really looked hard in the past and they have come up on e-bay a few times as a set of 4. But they always go for silly money.

The Tora 230 is a very similar alloy - but it's not the same.

If anyone knows how to get a group buy on these? as it looks like there might be some interest.

I have 225/40 x 18 rubber - and the ride is the same (I actually think better) than on my first GTA when I had the Teledials.

Re: GTA 18's

Have you got a photo of your motor with those 18's? I've not seen a 156 GTA with them on.
Thanks

Re: GTA 18's

Wow. I've not seen the 18s on a 156 GTA either, and they look beautiful. Does anyone know if they were available in gunmetal/anthracite orginally, or has the owner had them coated?

Re: GTA 18's

Now that is fantastic looking, really really

The anthracite finish is superb against the Alfa red (wonder if it would be as effective with my blue ).

The spoiler is nice and subtle, much like the GT version.
