Hello one and all. I am hoping that someone can tell me what these wheels might be off of for they came with a 1968 Alpine that I just purchased and I don't know if they are original to the car? Sorry for the bad pictures. neveridle

I am not sure, they are off the car with junk tires on them that i received in the deal. I just dont want to throw them away if they can benefit someone else?If Midget wheels the bolt circle is only 4 inches. Did they bolt up to your Alpine?
If they are Capri wheels, be aware that those wheels have a serious problem if used on the rear wheels on an Alpine. The rear drum design has a depression where the mounting surface is located that is lower than the outer edge. The outer edge of the wheel center contacts the drum first leaving a gap under the wheel center. I will try to get pics in the next day or two. Capri wheels work fine on the front or with a spacer on the rear.
Have fun,
Don
