5 stud wheel conversion on Alfetta

["Marius van Heerden" <mariusvh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hallo David 

I recently saw a great set of mag wheels and wanted to put these on my 
car a 1985 Alfa Giulietta 116. The problem is that these wheels are only 
available with other stud paterns and the 4 stud is one of them. The disks 
on the car are still fine, but if I want those mags I will have to replace the 
front disks with the hubs and the rear hubs on the de-dion suspension.

Normally people go for the 5 stud hubs, but alas I will have to change 
mine for the four. I have seen how someone fitted 5 stud hubs to the 
Guilietta which is essentially identical the the 116 Alfetta's. The only 
thing you might have to do is file a bit on the front disk housing , but 
otherwise it is a easy swop.

Now I have a set of 5 Genuine Alfa Mags that I will not be using as well 
as the hubs. It is a pitty that we are so far apart otherwise we could have 
made a swop.

Hope your conversion is hassle free.

Regards
