Choice isn't massive. 406s (along with a few other PSA cars) have an unusually small offset.

i know that,my budget is limited so cant afford brand new,will look for second hand ones,wouldnt be easy i think

Alberto, theres some nice 16" 406 nimrods with good tyres on the bay for £100 at the mo

Fair enough, I know what you mean I to would like some 17" challengers but do not know how I feel about having to run wheel spacers

I just bought some challengers for my 406.

The rear ones fit but the fronts touch the caliper, so I have bought some spacers and longer bolts.

Hopefully they will be on and I will be at Pugfest, MOT permitting.

Undue stress on wheel bearings & one more problem in the balancing act

, not saying there is a prob just a less then perfect solution + added cost
