Any idea what wheels these are?

Post by cabaret »

They're identical to Alfa Romeo 155 speed line wheels but in 4x108pcd

Hi,
I think they are Fondmetal 4000. I believe they are/were quite popular with owners of Peugeots which coincidentally, have the same 4x108pcd.
With that in mind, it might be worth posting a wanted advert on some Peugeot forums, you never know! By the way, you may have to check the offset to make sure that they'll fit.
Good luck with your search,
Andrew.

Seeing as you can never see both the left side and the right side of the car at the same time, it's recently become a fad to fit one style of wheels to the driver's side, and another style to the passenger side. Best of both worlds!!

First I chuckled................then I thought, really?

You never know what to believe when you see what some folk do to their pride and joy! :doh:

I'll air on the side of caution and presume you're pulling my plonker....... :lol:

On a serious note note though, as much as I love retro classic wheels, it's always nice and refreshing to see something different.
Pugs have some nice wheels........some that work well on classic fords, so long as they don't look too FWD.
