Which wheels are these please, standard?

**Blazerfrazer** · 09-20-2009

Hi all, i have just discovered the joys of owning a Mulitwagon, its our first fiat. What a fantastic machine these things are. It was going to be a fill in car but now i have fallen in love with it and now have no intention to sell it. I want to fix it up like new and be proud of it. it does have a few issues but i want to start with the wheels, they look cool but in need of restoring. I was hoping to buy a spare from somewhere and restore it then swap to the next one leaving me to work on one while there is still 4 on the car. As i am not an expert yet i have become confused to what wheels are which?!??! are these ones the standard ones or are they off a different model? Here is a close up of one of my fronts and i notice its slightly different to ones i have seen on ebay etc. then i saw my first Arbath in a car park ( yellow car ) and it had the same wheels as mine. Can you help me please discover exactly what to ask for when i try and track one or 4 down. My car is a 1.8 petrol Multiwagon, thanks guys

yeah they came standard on some stilos they are called Blades. they are 17inchs.

can be found on ebay, just make sure there are centre caps with them.

Be careful.... the Abarth spec blades (early abarths) are shadow chrome/anthracite in colour with different centre caps to the standard blades which were initially an option on the Stilo but became a standard fitting on some models after 2004 (I think) and pretty much all of the very last Stilos.
Centre caps are mightily important and cost an arm and a leg each new

Centre caps for the blades come in at about a tenner each.

Not in anthracite/shadow chrome - on the standard ones fair play - but the 'abarth' ones are a wee bit more than that, the ones on my 16's were bad enough

Really want a set of them. Shadow chrome or anthracite would be my preferred finish as well :)

So all the blades are 17"? correct and have the little 45deg slope near the tire end? so its just the colour I need to check? I don't care about the colour as I intend to paint them all any way. I assume I can mask and paint the cap also, or is the cap a different shape too? if i get a set i will offer them here to any one that needs one.
