Crazed Selling my wheels!

I'm thinking about selling my 17" supersport alloys off the 147 to fund my clutch change as I have managed to buy a set of steel wheels and trims off ebay for a tenner. Any offers or anyone able to talk me out of this decision

Finally managed to sell one of my motorbikes today so no selling of family members or wheels so hopefully have my Alfa back on the road within a week or so. Then its goodbye to my trusty rusty Mondeo.

Take it from me, it does !

Also gives you the fun of peeling of the dried glue from your finger ends, a strangely therapeutic past time that I enjoy even more than bursting Bubble Wrap..........

Pleased to hear that you are making progress Kris.

A dark grey maybe similar to the newer alfa's, but not the same colour as yours as I don't want to copy. I'd like something a bit different.

I had those wheels on one of my 147's.

Seriously loved them.

I think maybe a light carbon grey would be good for them or maybe even gloss black?
