Peugeot 605 alloys to fit Xantia?

bigblackfalco · Post by **bigblackfalco** » 25 Sep 2010, 19:40

A while back on ebay I saw a Xantia fitted with a set of nice genuine alloys from a Peugeot 605.
I think they were 8 spoke versions.
Anyone know about this mod please?
cheers.

Bolt on; use the Pug wheel nuts.

605 wheels have 5 studs like the XM, and won't fit any Xantias.

Are you sure the wheels were from a 605, and not from something else?

Maybe it was 406!! The old grey matter is failing me!!

Interestingly i cant think of any 8 spokers though, they did some 9 spoke ones and some sevens and six's but i cant think of the ones you mean, is it any of the above?

Fitting five lug wheels wouldn't exactly be a walk in the park...

Late XM Break 2.1 has compatible rear rotors with a Xantia Break. You'd need to redrill the Xantia hub and fit estate trailing arms.

Fronts you would need undrilled Xantia rotors, and a redrilled hub.

When it was said and done, you could then fit C6 wheels.

maybe it was the latter ones ... do you know if they are a straight swap?

OMG ... that all sounds rather too complicated

Wheel trims???? Those look like wheel trims I know they did alloys like that, but also wheel trims looked like that too...I think fitted to later end of line 306's...
