Does anyone know of any alloys for sale for a Citroen AX? Im struggling as they seem to be rare as they are 3 spoke

Cheers for any help.

Its sat in my garage. Its back from the bodyshop waiting to be put back together. Ive started a new job this week which has totally turned things up side down for us so the car is on the back burner for now. Ive gone from shifts to mon-fri days and weekly pay to monthly so im skint till the end of next month.

Mos would be ideal for the little AX if I could find some! lol

Problem with the 3 stud is you cant get anything bigger than 14" for some reason.
Why dont you do a hub conversion from a saxo or a 106. i did this on both my ax gts years ago cheap and easy to do and you can have you choice of wheels.

J Reg had 4 studs.

Face lifted and late model AX's had them.

At the time 1998/1999 AX GT's were the fastest insurable car for an 18 year old.. I loved mine when it worked.. it fucking flew.
