16" ALLOYS + TYRES off late 2003 406 'S'
Hello There -
Due to an upgrade I am planning to sell my set of my original 16" alloy wheels (nimrod style) multispokes off my late model 2003 406 'S' model.
The rear two are unmarked but fronts have a couple of very slight areas of blistered paint on the rim-edge only (not kerbed).
Tyres are all 205/55/16 Pirelli 6000 with the fronts down to 2mm (barely legal) but rears looking new'ish (approx 5-6mm).
They also come with a full set chrome wheel nuts and lock-nuts (with removal key).
Serious offers only please as I'd sooner keep them than give them away but if anyone is interested I'll email/ post some pickies up soon.
Cheers - Todd
PS I might end up auctioning them sometime next week as I understand they're in demand from other Peugeot owners.

Some more closeups for alloys (actually not cleaned so marks mainly dirt).
Looked closer at fronts and only one is slightly blistering in two places (see photo).

Here's some shots of my new wheels but the tyres is what I really wanted (225/40 tyres up front & 245/40 at the rear) .
Whats more with a set of hub-centric 20mm spacers theres no scrapes, bumps or rubbing either !
Admittedly they don't look as nice as my nimrods O.E wheels - but unfortunately the old 16" won't take these low profile tyres, which has made it go around corners like its on on rails - unbelievable difference in handling whilst cornering !

The Original 16" Nimrods are still for-sale - if any one out there wants the 'S' look (although rear tyres aren't 5-6mm - more like 2-3mm).
Also willing to throw in the original chrome tail pipe to complete 'the look'... complete with backbox that cracked/rusted at the inlet !
Need money for my next mods (FMIC/Turbo ?) ... So Offers please !!!
