I was talking to a mate of mine the other day and he said that he wanted a set of 180 rims for his 306 GTI-6. He said he wanted the rare limited addition ones. So out of interest I tried to search for a picture of these as I dint have a clue what they look like... Has anyone got a pair or a picture. Do they exist cuz I can't find them.

180 rims are Atlantis/Vortex 17" alloys - available in silver or shadow chrome. Neither are limited 'editions'

True shadow chrome are quite rare as most of them have been curbed and refurbed but there are still a fair few sets so in a word, no.

Challengers do - Atlantis ARE Vortex alloys when fitted as standard to the GTi 180
