They share most of their mechanicals with the 124 Spider. Jakob - the wheels are probably 15" Rotas, which are another Superlite/Minilite/Panasport style wheel - and one of the few new wheels currently available in Fiat's oddball 4x98 bolt pattern. I personally think 14" wheels look better on the car (like Panasports), and that 13's are the most period correct. 15's look too modern to me.rMattRnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112355325821745788.post-62237977396128492422012-12-14T12:11:42.865-08:002012-12-14T12:11:42.865-08:00i dig the wheels, - superlites.

Wow, this one is pristine.<br /><br />There's a good parts scene - most of us get our stuff from International Auto or Auto Ricambi but there's also used shops like Matthews. Never had a problem getting what I needed, which is one thing that makes these cars a realistic classic.J Billsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5112355325821745788.post-36921464487997929762012-12-10T10:46:58.804-08:002012-12-10T10:46:58.804-08:00Quite likely my new favorite Fiat.
