If the wheels are valuable get a locking set from Halfords or a factor.

Re: 1.4 tipo alloy wheel nuts

Locking nuts shouldn't be tightened up as tight as the other wheel nuts.

You can get sets of original bolts from Fiat, or from a Bravo/Brava/Punto in a scrap yard. The bolts are all the same size.
