GR86 Oz Ultraleggera Fitment

Mr_Hansen said:
@byebyeMX5 have you thought about the color of the balancing weights for the wheels? I ended up ordering, and have just received, the OZ Leggera (in gold as well), and I'm trying to figure out if you can get gold weights, or if I should go for black ones, as I think I would notice them too much in silver..

It's good to hear that you have ordered and received the lovely Leggera ...in Gold!! Please post a pic when you can.
If they have them Im going to go for black weights, I ordered black wheel nuts at the same time as the wheels which Im hoping look Ok so they tie in with the black mirrors...(Ive never been colour coordinated in my life!!)

Stortford Performance Tyres? I used to use them when I worked in Stortford and they were always very good. That was a few years ago but hopefully they'll be better than your experience so far!

Can't wait to see the wheels fitted to the car.

These were only 15" for my Alfa, but it's surprising what you can fit in the back of a GR86....

Yes, Stortford Performance Tyres, I have used them previously to and probably should have been my first choice with the Kwik Fit PS5 fiasco!!
I will pop in tomorrow and see also if they can code the new TPMS and get booked in for Thursday as I have a few days off work from then.

Ive not had the seats down yet but thanks for the heads up that there quite a bit of space in there.

Its is possible to get the OEM wheels and tyres in the back. Its a bit of a battle though.

I put two across the back seat area, with the seat back folded down. Then the third wheel on top of those two and the fourth in the boot. Getting the third wheel on top is the tricky bit. I have done it twice now and have decided that the second wheel in should go on top of the first in, add the third and move the second to be across the first and third in.

Many Thanks for posting the Tetris solution!!
I was concerned Id have to do 3 or 4 trips but you help is invaluable and should cut that down to 2...new wheels in and fitted with OEM in back on return journey and then a trip with the old tyres.
Many Thanks again.

I rudely didnt ask and am genuinely interested...what Alfa have you got? 15's might suggest 80's or 90's?
I went the Lancia Delta route way back for my Italian fix that was wholly unreliable but so much fun!!
 
It's a 146ti from 1998, bought with 27k on it and in remarkable condition, at least from 20 feet away....

I had an identical one back in 1998 so just had to get it.... Hopefully the 145 Cloverleaf Teledials will go on it soon.

I'd have loved a Delta!

Absolute no brainer to get it at 27k and the condition looks fantastic...im sure it has surprises not yet found but a lot less than many!!
The Cloverleaf will look fantastic on it....some lovely kit you have with a cheeky NC wing in pic!! I guess thats gone now?
My Delta wasn't the one that people crave!! :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

My NC2 was lovely, I'm going to miss it if the sun ever comes out again!

I miss both my NC1 and NC3, but to be totally honest glad to be back in a tin top!! I collected a Pheasant in the passenger seat at 90 early one morning!!
Stortford Performance Tyres came good as expected after dropping in this morning, PS5's hard to source but PS4's in 225, 40, 18 in stock and they can code TPMS so Thursday it is!! Finally!!

As you said, the gold color looks great in real life!
I'll post a better picture once I get them mounted as well

Just an update as I've gotten the Leggeras on the car. The color combo might be a bit controversial for some, but I'm happy with the unique look!
I'm still waiting on my black Muteki lug nuts, but they'll replace the silver ones, once they arrive together with my HKS Legamax Premium exhaust.

Mr Hansen Sir, they look absolutely stunning and the colour combo works perfectly, having seen @JDS gold wheels on Sunday we have formed an exclusive club!!
I think I need to source better lug nuts and excited to see when your HKS Legamax Premium arrives, I still haven't decided on which way to go on that yet...my heart says AWE Touring but I think it might be tad to loud!!
