Thanks mate. I could'nt agree with you more, a V6 is the way to go.......there's nothing better than hearing the sound of that glorious V6.
Nice thought though, but i've given up on it as i have a GTV V6 24V.
I fitted a 2.0 engine which i had modified by fitting 10,5 :1 Borgo high compression pistons, gasflowed and ported head, 3 angle seats cut on valves, 288 deg. cams, bigger jets and venturis fitted to the 40mm Weber's. All rotating parts balanced. I've also done quite a bit of cosmetics to the engine.

Well,

I just fitted these Sportiva 16 x 7 rims with 225/50/16 Yokes. I have a Sport suspension; Koni Sport dampers & Fr/Rr lowered. TIGHT fit!!!! A little ingenuity and a couple of whacks with the BFH did it. I think these are period correct for the car like a lot of the others shown.

Ride is greatly improved, but I don't get as much hard running around here. Too many coppers.....

BTW, these clean pretty easy. I hope the guy that designed the tight basketweave type rims is in HELL with a toothbrush and an endless stack of these rims to clean in front of him.

Yeha no worries I'll take some good ones for you, but I'll wait until the rain goes- couple of days?

Ride-heights aren't set yet - fender-work not done yet...

Any way, 17 X 7.5 Team Dynamics pro Race 1.2 on the 3.7 24 valve Milano/75. I bought these unfinished and had them powder-coated in this flat matte black!

235s on the front and rear right now - should be fine (once I do the custom body-work though...) The stupid Evo kit doesn't gain you anything!

Ultimately these wheels will live on the 6-speed 24 valve 3.45 litre 164 LS/Super though and I will be getting these Team Dynamics Pro Race 2s for the Milano (single picture!) Problem is that right now they only come in a 7.5" max width in 17s 9would like 8-9 - especially on the rears...)

Same size and finish 17 X 7.5 Pro Race 1.2s on Chuck's ' 82 GTV6 (but with 235 rears and 215 fronts.)

Also, Fred Wright's ' 69 105 GTV 1750 - "Cry Baby"

The wheels I recently felt in love with are the Work Meister S1

Modern wheels with that nice classy feel, perfect fit for a gtv6 Imho

John, thanks for posting all of those pictures, that was really cool to look at.

Why do you say the evo kit doesn't buy you anything? Am I better off just flaring my original fenders? I don't care about looks, I just want to fit as wide of tires as possible.

I love those Works. A cheap rip-off you can buy is the Rota D2. Looks pretty damn good too.
