Technical 15 inch wheels and stock Abarth 500 brakes.

Pretty sure there is someone on the Abarth Owners Club that is running Punto 15" alloys for the winter. Don't think they'll fit with the bigger brembo brakes though.

I even believe 16" will not fit the bigger Brembo brakes. ;)
15" wheels would be winter use only.
With a 195/55R15" tire it will be circumference wise the same size as the 205/40R17" tires, and it would fit perfectly in that perspective.

Hello,

sorry for bumping up this old thread....but has anyboday experience with the Barchetta steelies (6.5x15 ET32) on a 595 with the standard brakes? Does this work without spacers?

Thanks

I think they will work, enough space behind them, because of the flat wheel face.
They also fit on the old Panda 100hp, and that have/had so far i know the some brakes als the standard Abarth brakes. (correct me if i'm wrong)
 
Brembo brake kit is quite demanding about wheels if I may say.
It needs 17" but not everyone fit without spacers.

I have these Competizione wheels for winters and they need 10mm spacers to front (stock brakes in that pic still).

I think that Turismo trim would be with 16" wheels stock.
I did not accept them and took those Competizione wheels instead.

Those 284mm brakes should fit to 15" wheels though. Don't know if they need spacers with some wheels.
I'm thinking to fit those stock front brakes to my Turbo Uno. :p
 
Does someone know or have experience with, if 15 inch wheels fit over the Abarth 500 stock standard brakes. ??

Rumor has it that 15" wheels fit. ;)



If your going to try them, try the ones from the 500 Pop. They are available from www.500madness.com. IMG_0111.JPGIMG_0112.JPGThey are 15” steel wheels. Fiat also sells snap on and bolt on 15” wheel covers. The one pic says 2014 because I was finding them for my moms car, but they fit 2007-2019 500, 595, and 695 cars. IMG_0102.JPGIMG_0103.JPG
 
I already have the Barchetta wheels, but the car will be delivered in September. So before painting them white, I want to know if they fit...

Yes I´m now also quite confident that this will fit without any problems, due to the flat wheel disc design. There is around 340mm in Diameter und 50mm in hight, measured from the mountig surface.

I think you only need a spare wheel that fit over the rear brakes. (also for, Turismo and Competizione)
So if a 14 inch wheel fit over the rear brakes that would also work as a spare wheel.
It only mean if you have a flat tire on the front, you have to change 2 wheels.
First put the 14 inch spare wheel on the rear axle and put the wheel from the rear axle in place of the flat front tire. ;)

Make sure you have a none directional tyre on the spare if you are going full sized
 
My Turismo does not have spare wheel as standard.
It came with tyre repair kit. Never had to use it though.
 
Yes, I can confirm now, they fit perfectly.:)
