As above, I think I want to change from 15” steels and go for alloys for a bit of bling-ness.

I’d like any recommendations what to get and/or where to go, or are there any for sale?

As I always want to carry a spare then additionally either 5 alloys or a bare steel 16”.

Then I’ll keep the 15” on camper tyres, and use the 16” with 4 season tyres interchanged dependant on time of year and where I’m going as all 5 of my 15s are low miles, but not 4 season

I’ll bear them in mind. I think I need to figure out the PCD I’m looking for first.

5 stud wheels .....measure 'X' from the inside of one hole to the outside of the next hole and multiply by 1.7012.
 
15" Fiat wheels are usually 5 x 118 with a centre bore of 71.1mm, 16" wheels are 5 x 130 with a centre bore of 78.1mm, not a problem if you are buying after-market wheels but used Fiat 16" wheels will most probably not fit
 
Check out Rimstyle.com. I bought nice 16" alloys complete with 4 season tyres from them. I also found them very helpful on the phone as it's a big purchase and I wanted to be 110% sure I was ordering correctly.

I also had the wheels fitted at local independent tyre fitter. In the process he discovered that the new wheels weren't quite seating snugly. It was very marginal and I might not have spotted it myself.
They were in fact just slightly fouling on the lugs on the hub which were easily unscrewed and removed.

Very happy with Rimstyle.com
 
I have just seen these on fb market place
