Fiat use 4 X 98 PCD and I think Fords are 4 x 108 so I don't think they will fit.

if you fit a ford english axle you can then have multiple lsd choices & multiple wheel fitment then change the fronts to ford also, would be worth it for those wide revolutions, i have 4 spoke revolutions 8j x 13 front & 10j x 13 rear on my celica & she sits nice!

You will end up fitting spacers so you can get them made to bolt onto a fiat and accept any wheel pattern.. hope this helps

The spacers are bolted to your Fiat axle but they then have the stud pattern for your wheels drilled into them so you can golt those wheels onto them...

Looking at sid131's links, the last spacer/adaptor is very interesting in the fact that it has no hub ring or anything else to locate and hold the wheel other than the bolts. So maybe those Cromadoras will be going on my 131 after all.

Theo you can also use stud convertors & use M12 x 1.5 nuts, & take out the wheel locator bolts & chuck em!

revolution dont make the 98x4 pcd  wheels any more i have phoned & asked Geoff, they made my celica wheels on special order & they were pretty expensive, so those on ebay are a steal thats if no one else bids on them & they have tyres & i wont even mention how expensive they were also, so wheel adaptors wont break the bank to have some elusive wheels.
