Not had it 5 mins and already thinking what I can do to it

Seen a set of these for sale elsewhere. Would they fit onto my cinq sporting and if so what would be the best tyres for them. I think they would look amazing

it's either them or a set of sei abarth wheels if i can find a set

cheers

They will fit eventually with spacers, longer bolts etc but you will need some archwork doing, and lowering would be to a minimum.

Id stick to abarths as theyre 14'' will go a lot easier and lowering opportunity is much greater.

Good luck finding some abarths - rare as fook!

jamie has got his hands on a full set of those....

of a lancia delta, and they are 14's so fit with a hell of a lot less work

but, if u do really want them, 6x15 is a good size to go for, they would prob fit without any arch work if the car wasnt lowered as they wont be too wide.

you would have to find the offset for them in order to figure out which size spacers (if any) you need.

im not totally sure about tyres for that size to be honest...

195/45/15's - should be able to get dunlop sport sp9000, toyo proxies etc in that size as its very common - so spoilt for choice

thanks for the info guys. i'm gonna give them a try as i can get 195/45's dirt cheap through work and the wheels have just been re-furbed and are mint

If they don't fit can always throw them on ebay

Can't find any sei abarth wheels anywhere, hence going the lancia route.

What colour cinq they going on

Better get mine on asap

:shakehead

those are great wheels, much nicer than Sei Abarth wheels IMHO and much much rarer, at last count with DVLA there were only 400odd integrales registered in the UK, of those about half are EVO's so have Speedline multispoke wheels, therefore other half 8V & 16V integrale's split again 40/60 when there must be thousands of Seicento abarths in UK as its hardly niche low volume car, therefore thousands of wheels, I have seen at least 20-30 sets on eBay since I've got my Cinq 18months ago, not counting ones for sale on here etc and maybe 10sets of this style grale wheels in 3 years of ownership. Plus as they are 6J wide they are off an 8V as the 16V integrale had 7J wheels tho in same style.

the ones jamie has are 14" and off an HF Turbo late model so rarer again.

i would say on a 15" wheel with 195-45 rubber the off-set is critical, so about 35mm all round but retain 3mm spacers at front this should ensure no rubbing wither inside or outside.

HTH, Aaron.

yeah, that really helps aaron, thanks.
the set are 6x15 so should not be an issue hopefully, but will use that knowledge wisely if a problem does occur.

u got a grale? damn, my one life goal to have one. hopefully give it about 12 months and i'll be making the trip up to walkers and hand steve some cash over drove one of his a few years ago and fell in love

the wheels will be stamped with the off-set, as I do not know what it is on those, i do know that the wheels jamie got were 45mm off-set but they were 5 1/2J 14, so yours will be different as they are 6J wide, as long as you stick to about 35mm you will be good.

Yeah I have an integrale EVO1, had it three years now, Steve Smith does have some nice 'grale up at Walkers tho well priced as well, parts department is very good. If you are collecting those wheels from Northampton then give me a shout as I'm only down in Milton Keynes and up in Towcester most weekends as well whihc is even nearer Northampton.

A good site for 'grales tho for private sales is www.evoforum.net its run by a frind of mine J-P Lehou who has a magnificent EVO2 Carlos Sainz Respol replica.

Aaron.

Took me a while to find it but i was sure i had a pic of these on a car - wheels aren't detailed but you can imagine with the darker centres.

Looks ace, get em on


(off centomania.pl)

WOW, well thats my wheel decision taken care of then. Anyone want to trade a kidney for a set of those Lancia wheels? I actually prefer the fully silver, i wonder what they will look like on my silver/grey cinq.

Can anyone tell, are they 14's or 15s?

At a guess they look 15'', mainly cos they look to have filled the arch more than what 14'' would, although this cinq could have been lowered.

Does look smart tho

balidey,
if you hit the link that hgt20v put up at the top it says they are 15" wheels mate

Yeah, the linked ones are 15's, but the black cinq with them fitted was what got my juices flowing. I thought they looked a bit more like 15's but wondered if anyone could actually tell on that photo posted by blu73.

someone got a bargain.

Here are some more, but there is no way anyone will pay 500 quid for them

am i the only person who doesnt like pepper pot wheels??

Damn, looks like everyones gonna get these sodding wheels now

Oh well..........

Guys, the ones I bought weren't the ones on ebay, they were advertised elsewhere and have been completely re-furbed and are like new. Black centres with polished rims. All being well i'll pick them up tonight and have the tyres fitted tomorrow

The ones I'm getting are exactly the same as in the ebay link I put up. I believe they are originally off a 16v integrale as they are 15"

i would have to second you on that

imo if there is no gaps between spokes the wheels look smaller.. i must admit on a euro polo or golf or that sort of thing then the chrome pepperpots look lovely, but the cinq idoesnt suit them...

someone may prove me wrong, but for me the nicest standardish wheels on a cinq are Sei abarths, or gt anthracites...
