Alloy Wheels ( Fox-5) question

The PCD and offset are completely different. Vauxhall alloys have a peculiar offset that other manufacturers don't use...
Even if they could be modified, it wouldn't be cost effective. Sell them and buy some new (correctly fitting) ones :)
Justin.
No.
Not worth it. Buy new wheels.
15's will look daft on a 306 - you need 16's minimum, 17's really, 18's go on very easily.
Agreed - my mates got 17s with a kit and they look tiny.. the 206 is a big car with big arches... get 17s (or 18s if your gettin a kit)
You can't.
No. Not even nearly.
No. Not even nearly.
Wheels are manufacturer (and to a lesser extent, car) specific - *VERY* few cars from different manufacturers, share wheel fitments.
You need some Peugeot/Citroen wheels.
No it isn't. And nor is a 306 - which is what the OP was talking about btw :)
Gah - it was 1am and I'd been in work for the last 8 hours.....
206 is big compared to Fiesta, Ka, Corsa etc...Dunno bout the 306

Its is quite possible to properly modify wheels to fit alternative PCD spacings, but this works out quite expensive, and is only really viable on pretty costly race wheels.
I am able to repair most damage to alloy wheels, and can also refinish to very high standards. Contact details on my MSN group:

Glad to offer advice to anyone having problems with wheels............an in many cases can repair for a lot less money than replacement!

Point taken - I was just trying to put him off the idea :)
