The bigger you go the more your accelleration will be affected. and at top speed your car will actually be going slightly faster than the clock says. i reckon dark rims look cool on white motors.....something like this!

ello, you live in the same area as me

and you've got the same car as me

except mines red

i got some matrix torques on mine in 15".


you can get 17" under with no probs, as long as they are the right offset ( ET45-49)

bigger wheels reduce acceleration and handling too though....

best bet would be to go some where like R-tech and see some designs you like

M180Sri U2U u

R-tech sorted me a pretty good deal on my rims.

i got 15s for £469 with 45 profile tyres ofr the same price as 50 profiles.

plus i couldn't find these wheels cheaper n e where else.

could also try www.wheel-base.co.uk
