I know what Jim means though - back in the day when people put 17s on corsas, the arch was designed for a 13" wheel so a 17" wheel looked massive and when Scriv put 19s on OMG they were the biggest thing ever.
However, as times moved on and standard car wheels have got bigger so have the arches of standard cars to accomodate them so they're not framed the same, the arch is bigger in proportion to the wheel in the same was as the corsa arch is proportional to a 13" wheel.
Looks good though

its the 143 version
So not massive in performance
Should see about 175 with my box
TBH towards the end of owning the 1 series I found very few places to fully exploit the performance as most of my driving is rush hour
Also the extra 60 -80 a month in tax for the 320 did not seem worth it

Is the black grille a factory item? How much was it?
