Jes - everybody is a #&*$@%^ comic! Ha-ha...
230 per wheel  hmmm Now I am going to HAVE to go with a 17" - more modern Alfa wheel (like from a 156 from South Africa) for sure!
Louis - I have purchased 6 Milanos in the last 24 months - my Verde ended up Black and the track car is red - thank the LORD, but for a long stretch there they were ALL blue - 4 of them - all that dark metallic blue - including the one we found for Jes!
I could not figure it out! And way, now the '95LS - blue again... (At least this is a nice blue - all new!

Check out Ebay.com.au as 156 wheels are offered up all the time here in Oz. I'm sure the offset is incorrect for a RWD Alfa though.

Roundtail4me, your duetto is awsome! What is the wheel/ tire combo? Looks like just the right sidewall ratio for the wheelwells.

Wheels/Tires
The wheels are 6X14 GTA Replicas from Reoriginals with Pirelli 195/70 tires. I searched for quite a while to find an alloy wheel that looked period appropriate. I have been very well pleased with my decision. However, the ride height is not to my satisfaction and I plan on lowering the suspension when I find some time.
I still plan on bringing the original steel wheels back from their current rusty condition. I would like to have them powder coated, but I'm waiting for the right powder combination to be discovered.

You are right to wait on the powder coating for wheels. I had the chromadoras done on my GTV and they are too grey.
How heavy are the reoriginal wheels? I've heard that some of the repros are quite hefty.

Roundtail4me,
Beautiful car and looks like a great resto. Nice pic too.
Did you do the restoration yourself ? Another thread showing some more pics would be good......
