Agreed with Welly, those are very nice. They're centreless though so getting them balanced is fun. Hoggars, are they called?

Them are nice, I like the 5 spoke 17" 206 gti aswell and the 306 gti6 wheels, some good selections on the market, its just finding out what they would look like on the estate.
I get my wheels refurbed for free and any colour too but if I get the silver executive I'll just be keeping wheels silver too

Re: Hi, new person here
Those wheels will look just as lost in the 406 arch's bud & you've got the added prob of the wrong offset, you will find they foul the front brake calipers ,Ady1985 wrote:These are the wheels I was looking at to put on
can be made to fit using spacers but with the added cost £100+ for decent spacers you've got to REALLY want to fit those wheels
B.T.W I am in agreement with you on lowering them I'm gonna do mine in the spring I'll give you the spring details later .

Well done, sounds good like a good buy. I hope you're pleasantly surprised once you get used to it.
My bro's got an x-reg exec in grey / black leather, it's a nice car.
Post some first impressions, then pics, when you can.
