Hey, new to the forums..

Just wondering if fiats can fit the fitment of 4 x 100?

Most of them (Atleast the Fiat Uno's) are 4 x 98.

I have some alright 4x100 wheels and I was wondering if it was healthy if I was to put the 4x100's on the 4x98 fitment? Or should I get wheels specialised only for fiat?

Its fine to use 4x100 pcd alloys, you will need some 'wobbly' bolts to fit them though (bolts with a loose seat). These can be bought from nearly all good alloy wheel suppliers.

Hope this helps.

If they're aftermarket wheels, see if you can get a Fiat size 58.1mm spigot ring from the makers, to allow the wheel to centre correctly on the hub.

Oh sweet.

I guess thats good news then...

I have a fiat uno and I was thinking about putting some 16-17's on it.
Does anyone know the width and offset etc that the fiat uno can fit?

i think (bein a cento man i am no 100% sure) that the uno has the same, if not very very similar offset to the punto, u might actually be able to get the wheels i uno fittment which would have the right offset and stud pattern, if not, then punto wheels might even fit straight on!

not sure tho, but i think the offset fot the uno is about 36mm maybe 38mm at the most!!! (punto is 36mm)

i am sure someone will correct me if i am wrong

If you want a 7" wide rim then you need an offset of about 30mm.

But imo big wheels look silly on an Uno, id be more inclined to get some smaller diameter but wide wheels, say 7x14s front, 8x14s rear.

And anything over 15s will require arch work to fit.

on the back any more than a 6.5" width will be sticking out from the body work, rendering your car illegal, and at the front will rub excessively on the gearbox on full right lock, as the guys say, 14's look good, even the standard 13 x 5.5 are fine, 15 x 6.5 will go on with no work, but beyond that get the angle grinder and rollers out
