I've damaged 2 of the wheels on my G. I've got the silver 18" Turbines and Brembos, I want to get these but the advert say they won't fit?

I've Emailed Veloces to query this, just wondered if anyone had an idea what the issue might be? They are cheap, could they be replicas maybe?

Your GT has a 5x98 pcd and the GQV has a 5x110 pcd.

Already been mentioned here

The consensus is that they are not genuine.

Indeed, I've learnt from someone who works for an Alfa dealer these are replica wheels Imported from Germany.

Needless to say no good to me.

ah sorry...

Also, I think that page is old. I saw it and thought they were ok for £499 but when I googled veloces, they were £599

Your best to call Veloces, their prices tend to be non-consistent between eBay, website and other sources!

the wheels are made by WSP Italy I presume.

Can't see why they wouldn't fit the G

The brembos ?

 

[phil-gtv6]

The brembos ?

must be, but strange as the replicas of other designs clear them no problems

Odd to think that a replica that is exactly the same size as the original won't clear brembos, but the originals do? More metal? if it is they'd be even heavier!!

I don't see why these in the link below say they fit over the larger Brembo brakes and the dark ones don't? They look the same to me, just a different colour? I have a set of these but haven't had time to try and fit them, but I will do in the next few weeks. I looked on the WSP website see link below, it says that all wheels made by them are stamped with WSP Italy on them. I've looked on the ones I have and there is no stamp with WSP Italy on them?
