Topic: 1976 A112

[junior]

Here is my little car after one year of restauration




Its a 1976 with 70 HP Abarth engine, interior, electrics etc.

Now I wonder:

I like to have the group 2 wheelarches, but to do so I want a set of suitable rims.
Whats to go for? 6 - 7 - 8 x 13"?

What suspension and dampers are suitable both to lower and to stiffen the car?

Anybody knows?

good morning ,dont go to witdh .Stay with CD 30 5,5 x13 our periodic 6x13 wheels .With  a front wheels drive car you dont need wider wheels but outside offset is OK .You loss lots of power with bigger wheel(tyres) And you have a nice car,the group 2 wheelarches in black our red will be fine on it

I have the same idea. And do not understand your answer.

If I don't replace the normal 5,5 rims with som wider rims, would'nt it look stupid because the rims not are following the wheelarches?

Wheelspacers is a no-no! in my car.

its al depend on your offset ,with same size off wheels but a offsett outside a front wheeldriven car drive better .I have also 7,8 and 9 x13 wheels iff you wish for circuit our road

Do you know the rim size and offset on this car? Maybee even the tiresize.  It's perfect!
