What size discs you go for? 283mm?
I tried this project, with 283 (gti 180) discs everything fits/lines up perfect, the only problem was spacers with my 17" vortex wheels.
I didn't want to change the wheels so quit the project

As matty states you need spacers to fit these or aftermarket wheels. What sized spacers did you find out you'd need matty?

I think i attempted 20mm spacers, lead to problem 2, peugeot do not sell wheel nuts that are long enough to account for this.
Definatly do a dry run before bleeding brakes etc like i did lol

Oh that's heafty spacers  It wouldn't handle all that well i'd have thought? They'd stick out a mile from the arches too i'd have thought which is illegal too...

Looks good. As said 20mm spacers are what's needed, which I think is what he's bought, along with longer bolts! They look sweet! Maybe one day..

I know, the 406 have very wide wheels, i feel with the right aftermarket alloys all should be fine.

20mm spacing isnt that much at all and won't affect handling, especially if they are hubcentric, big wide stance... more grip theoretically lol
