Re: [Peugeot-L] About the 18's

How close are the front struts to the inner wheel lip? How wide are the rims? Odd the spring perches were in the way unless the wheel diameter is quite a bit larger than factory... Ideally you want that rim to be as close to the strut as the stock wheel...

Day time pics would be appreciated... As for the car itself - to each his own. I think it's cool you doing your own thing and that you putting a lot of effort into getting the car the way you like it.

It's a bit ricey for my taste - but I'm 34 so I'm into a cleaner wolf in sheeps clothing look.

Sweet car though - hope it lives a long and happy life!

  The wheels are normal wheels made by Motegi with a 4 bolt universal   bolt pattern which are 4 x 4 1/2 and 4 x 100. Unfortunately the bolt   pattern on our 505's is 4 x 140 therefore I had to get a wheel   adapter. I had it made in florida, slight modifications to the inner   wheel well in the back is neccesary, and also a little modification to   the struts spring housing, but after that there was no problems at   all. The adapters helped make the offset perfect so that it can fit   almost any wheel onto it. However the car now feels like im driving a   truck (due to the height difference in the front end)
