Yq397r Posted January 12, 2006 Report Share Posted January 12, 2006 I'm not too wild about either of those really. What I did for my 505 was acquire a set of early 15" STi alloys and repainted them to match the paint scheme of my car. I got these from George at Sunsetcoachmen.com, he treated me ok on the price. I like these for their looks and they are also fairly light yet strong wheels. I put Yokohama AVS ES100 tires on them and they perform great.

Bean Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 The 8-spoke steelies would be a no... The Gotti wheels look like the Politechnic wheels - so I'm guessing they'll be quite expensive. If they were decently priced then I'd go for them. Hopefully before April I'll have some answers on the BMW wheel conversion - if all goes well I may even be able to provide converted hubs and spacers on an exchange basis - I have an extra set of the old style hubs and the ABS style... Keep your fingers crossed! Rabin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bean Posted February 12, 2006 Report Share Posted February 12, 2006 http://www.peugeot-505.com/component/optio...1/limitstart,0/ Was just cruising and found this through the links on this site... Unfortunately it looks like they're doing the 4x??? instead of the 5x120 I originally was told they did. There isn't any documentation - but it looks like it would be pretty straight forward. From what I can see on my dark monitor - the bolts for attaching the disk are replaced by wheel studs/bolts that attach the disk and come right through and become the wheel studs as well. Pretty simple - too bad I'm already commited to the 5x120! Later... Rabin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
