Hi peeps, i got some tws evo's off a 155 narrow body and have fitted them to my 16v 33, i am missing 1 center cap and nut

Anyone know where to get a center cap and black nut with a "black and white alfa romeo badge" on them? as one of mine are missing, simular to these

Or maybe silver nuts CN50S "Centre Nut 50 Silver. Open Face Option"
or chrome CN74C "Centre Nut 74 Chrome." on this page
http://www.tsw-wheels.co.uk/tsw_wheel_accessories.asp
Instead of being open faced, thats where the alfa romeo badge is

Ive been in contact with a wheel company who contacted TSW, who said that they dont make the wheels anymore, (i know that) couldnt tell you if they bothered to look to see if any of their distrubitors have any left in stock

Out of interest, how did you deal with the centre bore being too small?

Be careful then as your wheels might not be fitted properly, are they flush against the hub? Plus the bolts are now taking the full weight of the wheel as opposed to having most of it resting on the hub, not sure how important this is but thought i'd scare you anyway Wink

im sure when i had them on my old red one (they are not on my new silver one yet as im waiting to get new tyres) there wasnt a problem, i have spacers, about 3 mm, so even if i did get a spigot ring i dont think the center of the wheel will touch it Crying or Very sad

Lol, fair enough, thought you'd just put em on your 33 straight from a 155 and might not have been aware of the potential problems.
Remember to post a pic when they're on!

I have a makeshift pic, i put the wheels along side the car and took a photo, but i dont have anywhere online to store my photos, like photo bucket and this site doesnt allow you to have your own space for attachments.

Hi ns
On the tsw site there is no listing for my parts (center cap on mine is NC69) the closest on their site is NC70, which is slightly different. Also their nuts Laughing are open faced, i need something to put a sticker on. I have now sorced some 60mm alfa romeo coloured badges on ebay.

Do you have a email address for the german company???
