Jrod 7 Posted April 2, 2007 They are not needed as the 205 doesn't have rear struts, strut braces are to stop the struts flexing during cornering but that is impossible in a 205. The only reason anyone would have one is for show. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
boldy205 75 Posted April 2, 2007 it already has an ARB (you cant see it, its inside the beam tube) the front upper braces are good, i bought one for £15 quid second hand and is one of the best VFM things i have done to the car. The rear strut braces do exsist yes, but why? who knows!!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
