i'm glad you like it... The wheels are actually from a 145 QV, which has a more powerful engine, so having them on might be called as cheating, but they look sooo nice, i just had to have them fitted. i can't believe what a difference a new clutch brings... feels like a completely new car! i just have to wash her now. and yeah, probably i won't be staying home tonight. even though there is a lot of work waiting for me...ah well, work will have to wait i guess  the only problem is, Ljubljana is a small city, so you circle it quite fast. on the plus side, the seaside is an hour's drive away  (where is the partying smiley icon when you need one???)

Wheels from a 145 QV niiice, as long as there Alfa wheels it is all good  . My sprint doesn't have its original wheels, but the ones i have are sporty and suit my car, I think, I might let you be the judge of that Alfa Wheel 1Alfa Wheel 2I'm glad your 145 is all better now  , i can imagine what it must of been like driving it again

hmm... i like the wheels, but personally i wouldn't fit them on a sprint. You see, because i like the cars to be as original looking as possible, and in this case the difference in design is a bit too obvious. the car is 70's design and the wheels are late 90's? personally i would fit something with more spokes and more "sharp" in design. that is just my humble opinion though...it would help to see a photo of your car in full view  it might bring a more positive response...

Yeah i think the wheels are cute but my car does need something that just screams "Alfa Sprint"so something with more spokes and more "sharp" in design you think? unfortunately i don't have full view pic yet of my car, but i'll take one soon for you  It's hard to find good Alfa parts in Australia without the wallet killing price, especially for the sprint, but i think i can live with these wheels for a while, well at least until i can afford something better I always appreciate the opinions of a fellow Alfa driver

wow, some pics just for me?  can't wait... i understand the problem, but they don't have to be original alfa romeo wheels... try looking at speedline, they made original alfa romeo wheels for the manufacturer in the 80's and 90's. or cromodora. or bbs. i'll post some links if you don't mind. maybe some used ones from ebay? the problem is in my opinion that the car is an young timer, and a pretty nice one at that, so it needs something older, maybe retro at least. oz, rays and enkei wheels are for ricers  (just kidding, no offence fellow honda and nissan drivers out there  ) P.S.:this has become quite an alfa romeo enthusiast thread. han, does your dog have an alfa badge somewhere?
