Hello to all,
I am looking ayt purchasing a set of 18" alloys for my 2000 406 hdi estate.
The alloys are multi fitting and came off a ford focus.
Doesany one know if these will fit or not. I have checked and the PCD is the same 4x108 but the bore of fordsand peugeots is different.
Any guidance would be great before i commit to buying these alloys.
Ben

Just quickly then, we're not really sure. There are all sorts of sites listing the wheel dimensions which you could have looked at. Here's one. Here's another that explains what it all means.

Focus 98> pcd 4x108 offset 38 to 45 bore 63.4
406/406 Coupe 95> pcd 4x108 offset 15 to 25 bore 65.1

As the Fockus wheels have a bigger offset, you won't be able to use spacers so you'd need to machine out the bore but they'd still stick out somewhere between 13 to 30 mm. The only real way to see if they're any good is to get them, have them machined and see what they look like. Then throw them away because they don't look right and now they're no use to anyone any more. I guess you shouldn't buy 'em.
