18" Type 3 wheels on 164
Hi Everbody,

I thought I'd share some very cool 164 photos a customer just sent me.

Keep the revs up,

Nice. You sell them? No rubbing? Need spacers or anything else to make them fit?

I wonder if slightly larger sidewall would fit.

Hi sjmst,

My customer reports no rubbing. The next size up sidewall would have to be test fitted to know for sure. Tire size can vary slightly from brand to brand.

Wheels come with new lug bolts. Aftermarket spacers are not requiered.

I think a larger sidewall should fit, and probably look better.....although the rims look great, the tires don't seem to fill op the wheel wells very nicely, IMHO. Wonder what tire size was used, we should be able to see if one size up should fit

Yes, my thought as well.

Are these lug studs particular to these type of wheels or will they work with other aftermarket and/or stock wheels?

elite38868,

The studs I can supply are 12x1.25 thread. So they will work on Alfa 164 and Fiat models. See this link for available lengths and prices.
http://www.serpentautosport.com/whee...ories_lugs.htm

They work with all wheels factory or aftermarket. Make sure you get the appropriate lug nuts for your wheels.
