These are "Schmidt VN-Line wheels", made in Germany by Schmidt.
My 1999 with Schmidt VN:
The wheels are 9x20" with 245/35 and 11x20" with 285/30

wide body kits
They look like a kit car. I do not like them at all and the wheels look really cheap.

I love the color.. The wing is all I would change. As for the wheels you need deep dishes for all that pasta in France.

Most people in Europe don´t like such ugly body kits. If you would post

same statements as here.

I kind of like the exhaust placement, but the hole where the old was needs filed with something.
