Sweet. there is a dearth of 98 PCD alloys in the market. Can you post more details on the Racing spirit wheels please, as in Pic, and any website info you may have. I had a tough time when i wanted to change alloys on my Linea. had a very limited choice to pick from. so settled for decent ones not one that i would have loved to get. good goin for you though. have fun.. enjoy your ride.

can someone please help me with the pricing of the bolts used in the stock alloys of the GP emotion pack.

Black or gun metal alloys : I feel these will look stonking hot on a Punto, whatever the body colour (but preferred red, black or white).

I am looking for Black alloys with a mirror lip (Might consider negative offset wheel as well) in 98pcd.

Guys!! any idea from where I can source these wheels?

Something like these:
(This is the car of fellow BHPian from Delhi, I did message him, but I have not heard back). I do not know what is the pcd of these alloys.

I have been shopping around for 98 PCD alloys. And no one has it in Bangalore now as far as i have checked. They all say FIATians are fixing 100 PCD ones to hte punto and linea which i am not a fan of.

Anyone from Bangalore can help me?

Buddy OEM stock alloys should be for 10500 for all the alloys , assuming if they are strachless & tyres are ok to go for 2000 each ..that would be a great deal .

Also try approaching FIAT dealers they may fetch you more moolah

Who is your dealer in mumbai ?? i think i know him ...
let me know his details

As you made yur choice with Racing spirit alloys ... think you should be more careful before releasing the hatch for the deal , also try looking for other options in the market or with other dealers too

cheers

Are you into tyre/alloys business?
If yes, Can you please tell me, if the alloys can be sent to Chandigarh?
Also, I would like to see actual pictures of the wheels before buying if you have them in stock.

Thanks

Nikhil ,

FYi.....When i enquired for SSW spider for 15 inch profile which is the only
avail in 98 PCD it was randomly quoted @ rs 4500/- each

The mumbai dealer is a WHIMP and told me to contact a Bridgestone
tyre dealer whom i had a word and saw the Spider Black machined
with Red lip in 14 inchers.

I swear i am not going to that bridgestone guy , Darn thing tried to brainwash me with his
applied science / mechanics stating that a 195/60 R15 is a misfit & insisted for a
185 / 70 R14 and tried to be chatterbox in proclaiming how Out of the Earth ,
Bridgestone GT 3 potenza was against my choice XM1's -- I had emailed the SSW India dealer in Vapi
who is supposed to take his case and is proposed on getting back with me with updated prices and a new dealer for the same

Now , i am just wanting to learn ..if the Dealer (Bridgestone) was a Complete Id!OT? or was he Really making sense of babbling with the
195/60 R15 to be a complete - NO NO!???
