Looking for suitable rims
My bravo comes with stock steel hub rims. Thinking of changing to alloys. But discovered that our 4x98 wheel type is not very common.
Does anyone know of shops with a good variety of such rims? Any particular brands too?

Re: Looking for suitable rims
another way i can think of is upgrade your rims from TTS to their 17" package..price wise i'm guessing around $2k..maybe other bros here can clarify.

Re: Looking for suitable rims
Thanks for all the tips!
I've actually visited a few places to check out
1. YHI - the spore agent for OZ rims: looks like OZ has stop producing 4x98 rims!
2. Stamford tyres: does not even carry any models for 4x98
3. H-tyre in Lavender area: also same problem. Tells me hardly any new cars using 4x98, and our offset of 30 is even harder to find.
Most of these shops suggest, we look at 4x100 rims instead. A "sliding bolt" can be used essentially like an adaptor to fit 4x100 rims into a 4x98 setup. Spacers can be further used to reach the offset needed.
Just wondering why Fiat has decided to choose such a weird wheel configuration - trying to be different here is not the point. Shld feedback to Fiat!

Re: Looking for suitable rims
Yes Sir! Will Do ASAP When I Get 'Em Up
Anyway.. Dun Even Ever Think About The Slidin' Bolt.. Wat They Meant Is They Will Drill The Rims.. Which Will Affect The Natural Characteristic Of The Alloy Itself.. I Rec. You The Spacer Method Though Expensive But At Least Safe, Many Rim Choice Next Time And Shiok.. Especially Connering.. Hahaha
