So who knew peugeots where completely ****e for the availibility of alloy wheels to fit but there ya go. Out of the small choice i had i've narrowed my search to 2 wheel choices.wheels are for a black 3dr 206.

First off is this 17" Lenso wheel, Black wheel w/ polished spoke face. 7 spoked rim,flat spokes with a v groove between each one. its a srtaight fit for the 206 and is a will be available in a week €900

The other choice is this 17" Lionheart wheel, again black with polished spoke face but this time a multispoke look with a bit of a curve in the spokes. this wheel is only a day away and is €825, only thing about this one is that its not a direct fit for the 206 and needs a 15mm spacer to alter from ford to peugeot fit and i dont know about trusting wheels with spacers?

They are both very nice but I perfer the Lionheart.

even though it would need to have a spacer to convert it from a ford fit to a peugeot fit?
and is there any place i kud get new caps for the centre? i dont like the lions.

All a spacer does is alter the distance that the wheel sits from the hub to arch.Whats your cars pcd?

Most if not all 4 stud Fords are 4 x 108 which is the same as a 206.

The offset on a 206 however is very low and is reccommeded to be between et20 and et25. This could be made ok with wheel spacers but unless you really want the wheels and they are not available in a 206 fitment I wouldnt bother with them. Its best to get wheels that are suited to your car so as not to have problems with steering and rubbing etc at a later date.
