I finally found a use for one of those metric wheels Laughing

The best use yet!

But these are the best wheels for any Alfasud, right? I mean, they are the original alloys! Razz

What size is it? 14 inch?

If these are the 14 x 5.5 inch, the same as were on my Sprint, they are about a Kg lighter per wheel than the 14 hole wheels fitted to the Series 3 cars. I'd be hanging on to them if I were you.

I've still got mine, but I found some 15 x 6.5 inch wheels the same weight (after a lot of searching).

Regards

You didnot see the title of my post, they are metric i.e. 340mm which is arround 13.5". Tyres are about impossible to get here in New Zealand so I will stick with the 15" wheels I have on the car (205/60 15)

Yeah, the original wheels! Cheaper to replace all the wheels AND tyres than to buy a couple of metric tyres on their own!

Can't you turn them upside down, for a plant pot with drainage holes? Laughing
