Hi
I've been offered these wheels for the Spider for everyday use, then I can store the 'turbo' wheels away.

Re: New ( Secondhand ) Wheels - What does everyone think ?
I'd give them a 6 out of 10 . I think wheels with a bit of a 'dish' effect suit the Spider better, rather than flush faced ones. They'd also look better if the car was a couple of inches lower, but I know you've got that in the pipeline anyway .

Curly,
Hopefully it will be lower next week by Ross from Fiatorque, if the new springs come in, in time ! !
And also in time for the Fiat & Ferrari Race day at Oran Park - 1st of March. There is suppose to be a $3.4M Ferrari out on the track that day.
Regards

I like them. I've got the turbo wheels, and they look OK, but they're so common it makes them seem plain looking, IMO.

send them to Michigan if you grow tired of them. I can find a REAL nice home for them

Re: New ( Secondhand ) Wheels - What does everyone think ?
Depends on the look you're going for. These don't look real aggressive to me - more of a 'classy' look.
I like them a lot - I think they go very nicely with the overall look of your car.

Pope,
It's the boot (trunk) key on a white cord, -
When out on a race track you need quick access to the battery isolation switch which is in the boot (trunk), hence the spare key lives on the cord ! !
