Try Schmidt wheels. They make some that look very similar.

Ronal has them but they have writing on them now. It's really bad.

Thank's guys,
I took a look at the Schmidt site but some how the ones they make don't appear to have the classic look of the originals. Do you know where I could source a set of originals? it would be interesting to know which 116 Series models these Ronal Turbos were originally intended for, i.e were they a factory option or were they always after market? I read on www.alfasport.net that they were standard on the GTV6 Grand Prix supplied to the Swiss market, but I feel as though this may not be true because all the GP's I've seen have a classic looking BBS Multispoke.
I feel as though the original wheels on the GTV6 somehow do not do it justice, it's also a difficult car to match up with wheels. Any more help on sourcing the original Ronal rims would be most appreciated however I feel as though it may be an impossible task...
By the way Ronal don't do a Turbo with a 5 stud pattern!
Regards
Alex

Hi Enzo,
So sorry, I have e-mailed chrisgtv and asked him if he will sell me the wheels, I hope he does!!
Do you know if there is retailer in Switzerland who deals in these kinds of wheels?
If you hear of anybody else who is interested in selling a set of Ronal turbo's to an Englishman then please let me know, I would be very gratful

Sorry guys have been away,
I contacted ronal and they said that they do not do a 5 stud ronal turbo anymore, Enzo has identified the exact wheel I want but I need it in a 5 stud for the 6 cylinder model alfetta.
Guys thanks for your help,anymore news on where to source a set of these highly desirable wheels would be much appreciated.

P.S I live in London where you can never do more than 20 mph and the only place to strech the Alfas legs on are on the motorways at night or in the country side during the weekends, In this city it's all speed cameras and road humps, traffic calming measures gone mad!!! they don't even have traffic wardens in some places here now, you pull up to get some milk for 30 seconds and the next thing you know you get a letter in the post with a photo of your car because you stopped on a single yellow line (which sould be fine in most cases on a saturday!! but they change the parking regulations every bloody year) with a £50 fine, there is no escape London is anti-car!!
