Hi All

I'm looking to buy a second hand 17" wheel to use on my 57 plate T-Jet. I'm a bit confused as the ones I see around are a different design and I'm not 100% that the fitment is the same as on mine.

Basically the other design is a multispoke with a forked ending whereas mine are plain multspoke. I looked at some pics on Google Images and I can see both designs used on the GP Sporting - maybe the forked ones are off the M-Jet?

Are they the same fitment etc? :confused: I'm not bothered about the design. According to the manual I need 6.5Jx17 ET46.

Cheers

p.s just out of interest does anyone know how much a new single alloy would cost through Fiat?
 
Thanks for the reply.

I forgot to say I'll be using it as a spare wheel - I'm thinking of buying the cheapest tyre I can find of the right size etc to go with it. Any ideas as to whether this would still be ok for insurance purposes? I'd only be using it as a 'get me home' rather than using the gunk stuff. I guess if the wheel and tyre are of the right spec for the car it should be ok.

Cheers

There was a used pair of 17” 50901338 style for £75 on eBay recently – they didn’t sell, so maybe will get relisted. Alternatively some FIAT dealers sell sets via eBay – maybe worth getting a quote for a one off.
