I think it's settled, I'm an official anti-stance hipster. Iconic late 1980s Peugeot 205 GTI wheels on a 2000 Peugeot 406 coupe. The wheels are so small the mechanic commented it was such a tight fit with the brakes he couldn't fit a coin in between.

Looks pretty sharp!

With those tires it looks like an old Volvo, they have incredibly narrow tracks and tires well hidden by the fenders.

I like the idea of putting old rims on newer cars, and this looks decent!

Those are nice wheels.

And yes, they look a little small for the coupe. But hey, moar N.m!

Well, to be fair, they're 15 inch just like my factory wheels. They're narrower than my stock wheels though (185 vs 205) and the offset is slightly (6 mm) different as well.

On the plus side, it now looks like you have massive front brakes!

Looks pretty good.

I'm surprised, as it looks real good with these wheels. I would love to see it on PTS wheels though. Like on this 106.
