i thought about lowering my 406 a few years ago then thought. why ? a 406 is all about its smooth"ness" and comfortable"ness" and lowering it will loose both of those... but each to theor own i supose

Looks like you need a bit of Oxygen in those tyres?

I do appreciate a nicely lowered car ( my manta had a 4" drop on it ) but I drive for a living, and my truck isn't that comfortable, so I appreciate the comfort of the 406 after a long day

tyres are only 205/40/17 so arnt right for the car but trying to decide if i like the wheels enought to upgrade the tyres on them thats why it looks like its on stilts
as for the galaxy it dropped a follower and took out the valve while racing a beemer about a year ago ive just not got round to stripping it as neibours are a bit funny about me working on cars never mind having one in bits sat there for a couple of weeks while i sell the parts

Wheels look alright mate, perhaps some chunky tyres wouid make them look better,
they look like AEZ alloys to me .
