I think they are replicas, but not I am not sure. These are 12 inches in diameter. The alloys will come with tires which are in relatively good condition. I bought the car with the alloys installed. I have opted replace the minilites and recently bought Cinquecento Sporting 13 inch alloys, so this set is surplus to requirements.

 I never seen them fitted to a 126, so can`t say for sure.
 Here is how they look on a 127.

Just one thing. The set of alloys does not include the wheel bolts. Is that fine with you?

There is a lot of thread left. It looks in good nick. There are some minor cracks. It will probably okay for short distances. Probably best to replace the tires but it is your choice.

The set of alloys is at my friend's Alfa Romeo garage. I'll be at the garage this weekend, so will try to get them removed them from the car. I'll keep you posted.
