Here are the pics of the Hoggar wheels that have been sat in the garden for the past 6 months.
Tyres are all 215/55x16:
2 x Nexen N3000 97W with approx 4mm
1 x Michelin Pilot HX 93W with approx 3mm
1 x Torneo Stunner 97V with 3mm at the centre, but only about 2mm at the edge.

No prob. They do look the business on the car - give it a nice wide stance compared to the standard 15s. It's just a shame that they seem to corrode so easily. I got through 3 or 4 really nasty sets to get these ones, then gave up & decided to get the Nautilus ones refurbed.

Hi m8, after pricing up new tyres, the cost of refurbing the wheels, and collecting them ive decided to pass, thanks for the offer though and i am sorry for messing you about, just dont fancy throwing £500 at a set of 16" wheels for what is basically my work car when mine are perfectly adequate for the time being
To rebuild the impossible is possible by making it become a passion..... Oct 2001 406 2.2HDi 16v Executive..... A work in progress

No prob. When I get a dry day I'll be sticking them on the car so the Nautilus wheels can be sold on.

Hopefully. Overall I'd say the car would be easier to sell as the Hoggars look more standard fit, plus the Nautilus wheels are in mint condition & rare as rocking horse sh*t. That said though, the rarity of the Nautilus wheels makes them difficult to price as there is no sign of any being sold recently for me to compare.
Posted them on the coupe club Sunday night, but as yet I've only had one person express interest & he didn't even make an offer anyway. Reckon they'll end up on Ebay once removed.
