I have a Seicento Sporting Abarth,i have 14" Abarth alloys fitted,they have a 36 offset,i have fitted 15"x7" Oz alloys with 195/45 tyres,they do catch the arches over bumps,i had to fit spacers on,i fitted 3mm on front and 5mm on back,these where the only sizes i could get at the time,Motorworld are selling some 15"x6.5" alloys cheap(£369)with 195/45 tyres,they are 100mm PCD but will fit with wobbly nuts same as the oz ones i have,the offset is 35 so should fit on without spacers,i was thinking of getting some as the oz wheels do not suit the car,they also have 17"x7" alloys for £499,if i get some of those with 35 offset,will they fit?the only problem i can see is them hitting the suspension leg,has anyone fitted any 17s?if so,what problems did they have?

have seen 2 sei's on 18's and a cinq on 19's

everything is possible within reason

Now written off Cinquecento Sporting,
and yes it was indeed Broom Yellow

Dont worry, the poppy coral lives on for another car

you will need the arches literally cutting out and reshaping to fit 17s. If that's what you want to do, go bigger still.

i think i will stick with 15s,sounds like a big job to fit 17s

Go 19's and fit a mk1 Punto el 6 speed box with low gearing. Will cancel out the 'overgearing' from the wheels.

i have 17s on my cinq, i dont know where you live but the main place that ive found to do this type of work to the arches is Xtreme in Harlow. The arch work cost me 200 pounds, i left the car with them for the day and they did it in this time. They had to remove both the side skirts and rear bumper in order to fit the wheels, and these were reshaped by a bodyshop once the wheels were fitted.

fABULOUS, fEMALE aND tOTALLY fLIPPED

whats your performance like tho hippy?
