Hi,
Just a quick question, are these vortex or challengers?
The center doesn't look right but seller has said center is not capped.
Thanks in advance.

They look like they have a centre cap...180 wheels don't. Or do they sometimes?

The width of the rim will tell you if they are 180 rims or not, think vortex are wider. But from that picture they look like challengers.
Vortex are smooth like so

If the centre cap is removable then there challengers, But to me they look like the early vortex's that had a slight lip around the centres but they aren't removable. Then they changed them to smooth centres.

Yeah, 7j is the same width as the Vortex. I think Challengers are 6.5. I've seen the early Vortex mentioned - Peugeot were just trying to keep you on your toes!

They don't look like vortex nor challengers. Maybe the earlier Atlantis alloys?? Challengers are 6.5 but have removable centre pieces but those look like a single piece but aren't smoothed like the vortex. Luke maybe right about earlier style ones.
