After several years of ownership, I’m still trying to find the origin of the alloy wheels of my Fulvia. The only thing I know is that they are Lancia originals because that’s on the inside of the wheel.
I presume these wheels must have been ‘afterparts’ (from the 70’s, 80’s?) but I never saw them before in any (Lancia) model.
Who have seen it before???
P.S.:The car was imported from Italy to The Netherlands in the late 90’s.

unknown alloy wheels Lancia
Re: unknown alloy wheels Lancia
They are 14 inch wheels. I know because a friend of mine has a refurbished set at home. They fit his series 1. But it can be that the hub fitting on his set is enlarged to 84mm to make them fit. Not able to tell. How big is the hub fitting hole in yours? Fitting snugly around a series 2 hub or carrying on the bolts only?
Very nice rims though. Although slightly more Alfa than lancia. You are the first I see with the same wheels. Be carefull with them!

Re: unknown alloy wheels Lancia
I've seen similar ones on Alfa Romeo, Alfetta GT(V) I think, hence probably after-market Italian brand from mid 1970s.
Re: unknown alloy wheels Lancia
they seem like the gotti mounted on different alfa (giulietta), similar to the reproductions inspired by the campagnolo fitted on gta.
very strange on a fulvia, never seen before.
nice set indeed !

Re: unknown alloy wheels Lancia
William, thanks for your reply! Nice that you recognize them. Does your friend knows the year/periode of the wheels?
Thanks for your help
PS no problem with the hub!

Re: unknown alloy wheels Lancia
they look great - hope you find the answer re origin
Re: unknown alloy wheels Lancia
So your hub flange fits tight in the hole of the rim?
If that is the case than you have a series two wheel and was therefor made in the 70's. As there is lancia Fulvia written in them it surely is not a Volkswagen wheel.
