CX season!

I'm driving it a lot these days. Several longer runs as well... Bought a set of 16" wheels for serious driving - and to spare the TRX's for special occasions..

La Cx dans toute sa splendeur

salut citrobert, je viens moi meme de faire l'achat de jantes alfa romeo d'occasion en 6.5x16(pour ma gti turbo) pour y mettre des pneus 205/55/16 ,car il est vrai que le trx est hors de prix !!!!

elles meritent juste un petit coup de polish !

allala c'est trop beau! mais tu la prends toujours en position basse.

jeffyjef pense aussi a mettre les pneus

Ils font de jolies jantes ches Alfa Roméo (ah les stylistes italiens), mais elles sont trop typées alfa (sur une Citroen).

Sinon, Citrobert, peux-tu donner des précisions sur ta CX (type, année...) pour la culture ?

merci

My CX is a 1982 CX Prestige Automatic. It has covered no less than 315 000 km. There has been 2 previous owners. Chassis and bodywork was renovated to my cost last year - which turned out to be quite expensive. Engine and gearbox is completely original and in very good condition. The wheels are Michelin Pilot Exalto 205/55 16 on light wight 7 x 16 BBS RC's - and really has transformed the car into the driving machine it was meant to be from the start. After all: 30 years of research & development has been done since the TRX design was launched...

The wheel fit perfectly under the rear wheel arch covers:

And I do take pictures with the suspension in normal position as well...

I think that the Alfa wheels you show us looks great! The design - although very caracteristic Alfa Romeo - suits the CX well. Let me see the final result - when the tyres are fitted!

Thanks a lot for these precisions and details. What a beautiful car !

It is possible to see some inside pictures, please ?

Interior materials: Tabac blond velours. Still in good condition despite 315 000 kilometers...

je suis entrain de refaire les roulements de bras arriere (un de fait) ensuite j'y mets des pneus et promis, je refait des photos en exterieur !

What a beautiful car!!!

Without lateral protection the original lines designed by Opron are really fantastic!

I don't like tuning in general, but I must say that the whells you choose fit perfectly the CX.

But I still prefer original of course .

I totally agree - but TRX's are impossible to find with Norwegian Michelin dealers (I even spoke to the official Michelin import office...) And if I could find - it would be far too expensice for yesterday's technology.

Since you're such a purist... I bet you have TRX on your 604 as well?

ou plutot forever

forever ...and never

Well in fact I'm very lucky with the 604, because it's a very early model ( 76 ) and TRX tyres were not available this year ( I think it's from 78 models).

So I've got 14" whells, with the same mount than my CX, 185/80/14.

And don't like the design of TRX whells on the 604, its looks like 4x4 wheels in my opinion.

Another shot showing the BBS wheel:

Thanx, but I'm shure you'll find something that's not perfect - if you look closely enough. Anyway - I guess it's good enough for me.

I will continue to take photos - you bet!

In fact I'll die with the camera in hand - and still continue to haunt you with photos of my CX...

What do you use to take photos?

Very nice at all!
