Proper splits? If so, I'm mucho jealous! I'd love a set of 18" splits for my 406.

To be fair, that's pretty much what my next 406 will probably look like (will get an estate when my saloon eventually dies).

Those wheel are great becuase they don't make yopur brake discs look like milk bottle tops (like most aftermarket wheels seem to).

I thought it was a bit too parallel to the ground :cheesy:

WOW! That's really nice

Loving the wheels, been trying to decide on wheels or my saloon and I think I've just found them! :mrgreen:

What shocks are you using with your springs? I need to change my springs and shocks come winter and was curious weather standard shocks could take it?
