The details of the wheels used on a series of Alfa Romeo cars does not rise to the level of notability to deserve its own article. The article is also unsourced, so unverifiable. We don't even have an article on the Alfa Romeo 105 series yet, otherwise I'd suggest merging anything that might be verifiable into a short section there.

• Alfa Romeo "105 Series" vehicles is a reference to a factory numerical series designation and covers a range of named models already exisitng on Wikipedia: Spider, 1750 Coupes, Juniors, Sprints, etc. While these had diferent name designation, the 105 Series cars share many similar engine and drivetrain components. OEM Alloy wheels suitable for "105 Series" cars may be fitted to many named models. The "105 Series" Spiders were manufactured from 1969-1993. The "916 Series" Spider was re-launched in 1995. Agreed, this article is a very specific topic, but it is difficult to merge with other model-specific articles due to its applicability across several named models.

• Merge into userspace then delete It would seem that this would be appropriate merged into an article that covered ALL Alfa Romeo wheels, or Unique Automotive Wheels or something that likely doesn't exist. I am not sure how the existing article can ever be notable, even if it is informative. Looks like something that may belong in userspace until a broader article could be written. It isn't that the information is useless, it just that it is homeless. Pharmboy (talk) 01:28, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

• Delete Inane, unencylopedic, come out the wrong side of WP:NOT. -- Ļıßζېấשּׂ~ۘ Ώƒ ﻚĢęخ (talk) 04:40, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
• Delete, car parts have to have independent, third-party sources showing they are notable just like anything else. Maybe I should go create an article on Samsung microwave oven door latches. Lord Uniscorn (talk) 09:02, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
• Merge a small part of this content to Alfa Romeo. Not inane nor unencyclopedic, just too narrow a subtopic without enough independent sources found. And let's be clear, to some car owners, wheels are one of the most noticed components; plain stamped-steel wheels like on your Escort might be akin to microwave latches, but these styled alloy rims are more significant. This level of detail isn't needed on Wikipedia; maybe an interested party can find an automotive wiki that would accept it. Barno (talk) 15:00, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
• Merge this to a page on Alfa Romeos. It does not warrant it's own page but is worthy of a mention.
