| Alloy wheel help?? I am after some alloys for my Panda CLX, I have been looking around but fiat alloys are quite hard to come by, well certainly in my area. What modern caars would i be able to take alloys from which would fit, I know the panda is a 4x98 PCD stud pattern, but do not know which other modern cars are. Any help would be appreciated.

| Cinq gone, Uno asylum! | Re: Alloy wheel help?? Plenty around! http://search.ebay.co.uk/search/sear...e=search&fgtp= Most Fiat wheels are four stud and 98 PCD, so stick with the real thing for peace of mind. A popular Fiat wheel to fit to Pandas are the Cinquecento Sporting alloys. You can fit 100 pcd wheels meant for other manufacturers but you'll need "wobbly" bolts. Personally I wouldn't fit those as I'd rather it all bolted up without resorting to non standard fittings.

| Re: Alloy wheel help?? I had looked on ebay before but never found this many. Im watching a set of punto sporting alloy that I can drop some low profile tyres on. Thanks.

| Essex Panda's R Us | Re: Alloy wheel help?? If they are 15's then you will need 195/45/15s and you will still need to roll the arches 14's with 185/55/14s will fit (185/60/14s maybe) but most fit 13inch alloys to keep things simple.

| Re: Alloy wheel help?? They are 14's, im pretty sure they are 175/55/14s so they should fit in, a set of 15's should fit with really low profile tyres without the need of having the arches rolled and flared. My younger brother is running a set of 19"s on his rover 200 without having the arches done, and hasn't had any problems, apart from the price of the tyres that is...lol. I will be looking at 13's and 14's only anyway as I don't want to be buying low profile tyres all the time as it can get stupidly expensive.

| Silent Surveillance | Re: Alloy wheel help?? Keep an eye on the offset when buying wheels. I've test-fitted some Uno Turbo rims and they need a little bit of spacing at the back to avoid rubbing the inside of the arch/brake pipes/fuel filler pipe. They're something like -42. Cinqs and Seis sit 10mm further out so will pop straight on without fuss, and make the car look like it's wearing trainers. ![]() Could be different and get the steelies banded or fit wider steels...
