Does anyone know what type of wheel this is?

I mean, if they have a make/name, I would like to know.

And also, was this ever original Fiat on any years, or is this just aftermarket, etc?

Thanks Guys

It's a standard 70's aluminum slot wheel. They were made by probably half a dozen different companies. Craigar, AR, Weld, to name a few. You'd see them on everything from Fiats to Chevys to Mustangs. Very common, heavy, unbalanced, cheap. Never came on Fiats as OEM. Some added on by dealers but mostly aftermarket guys. Very Rock n Roll, not likely to find any today though.

Good luck.

Hey, thanks a lot!

That's some great info. I really appreciate it!

I've never seen the before, so I wasn't sure

Joe's info is correct, nearly every wheel mfg made those slot mags in the 70's. Not too many imports sported them, but they were the wheel of the day for Detroit iron. I happen to have a set of them on my 69 Spider

Yup, here in Europe these are known as Wolfrace alloys
