There are two 5 spoke design alloys for the 307
I asked this question yesterday: 206info.co.uk/Forums/v...17931.html
If they look like Vortexes with a centre cap, they are Challengers
If the face of the spokes are slightly narrower I am informed they are Ariane
I'd like to know if its much hassle fitting Arianes

thanks guys - in answer to andrews question they are easy to fit as long as you put low profile tyres on them - when i got them they had 205s 55 16 and these rubbed - i think they are now 195 45 16 - no problems and loads of grip makes the car sit much better and handle better. plus i think they look great -

Awesome they do look good, should be relatively easy to get hold of. Did you have to use spacers? And what wheel bolts did you use? Cheers

didnt need spacers - but i suppose you could use them if you wanted to step the wheels out a bit - unecesary i think
i used normal bolts - just upgraded to nice shiny new ones from ebay - i will post some decent pics of car (2.0 silver ph2 hdi) tommorow - but i think these type of wheels really do make a BIG difference to your car - i got mine for £100 from friday ad and they were mint

So I could use the same bolts that are used on nimrods if I had a set of these on my car? I know this was your question thread but thanks for the help
