75mm PCD? Are you sure?

What is the diameter and width, that would help to ID it.

I would put it at early 1970's vintage.

Response from my Alfa expert;

"It is early 1970’s, off a 105 series car, likely to be a Bertone GT or Spider. Don’t think it’s an actual Alfa wheel but an aftermarket one"

An MG Midget alloy looks similar.

Those aren't alloys, they are Rostyle wheels (steels);

Can we trust this measurement? Have you actually tried them on a Ford hub to check?

Or Citroen/Peugeot/Talbot which share the 108mm PCD?

FFS, these are all ROSTYLES, as I have already pointed out.

ROSTYLES are STEEL wheels, and the wheel in question is an ALLOY!!
