Azevs were there in the days of borbets As and popular on german cars...BMW/Merc but also very popular on ford cossies in the day which means.. most were 4 stud.

Great looking wheel the Type A Azev.

I have seen that ebay ad for blank PCD Azevs for a while.. and definitely worth considering

Agreed. They are a really popular wheel on the Ford Cosworths.

I am looking for deep dishes for my 144 project and have come to the conclusion I will be holidaying in Sweden this coming summer. I have set my heart on MIM Juventus wheels, have found a used website for Sweden but cannot get vendors to ship so a visit will have to happen.

Maybe a Swedish member on here, or an English-speaking member of a Swedish club/forum, might be able to help import them? I was planning on this route until I eventually found a company in Norway who would ship my Super DTMs for the 164.

I cleaned, primed and re-shot my wife's Virgo's in Duplicolor's satin black. They're going on 6 years now and look great.

I've seen a few wheel styles that i like and are available in the Uk.

Firstly the Lenso BSX, they come in 17 x 7.5 with an et20 5x108
16 x 9 with an et15 5x108

Or Dare do similar wheels in the same fitments.

But i dont want to pay hundreds of pounds for something that might not fit! lol Can anyone give any advice on what size / offsets i should go for to get a euro look without having to do too much arch work (non if poss!)

I thought Virgos were about ET20 but dont quote me on that. I know the larger offset wheels (ET42 etc) are more centred around the FWD vehicles so you need something with a low number.

Id risk it with an ET15 or ET20 offset.

Im running Galaxies with a 20mm spacer as well and I need a little arch work but thats created quite a large offset for me so I guess youll be fine.
