Has anyone tried fitting them?
Other than likely weight/strength issues, needing adapters from 5x112-5x108 or even 5x98, and the centre bore needing to be enlarged to 66mm can anyone think of any issues??
Like the look of the Alfa Pepper Pots and reckon they'd sit just dandy on our Westy!

Re: Alfa Romeo wheels
Putting weight rating aside for a mo:
On a 6.5" rim you can have ET30 on a 2wd as per SA buses and tyre/rim will clear the top wishbone but...
Those Alfa wheels are ET41 which leaves only 11mm for a PCD adaptor/spacer, which isnt nearly enough to cover the T3 wheel nuts, unless they will hide in voids in the back of the wheel centre.
Probably a non-starter.
