Ive got 16's on my car atm, but having the PSG Wide arches/skirts put on, and the car is lowered 60mm. Gunna get coilovers looking for a 80mm drop at the front and 70mm at the back!

But think the 16" will look too small!!???

So looking into 17"s and have seen these i like but not sure on there offsets!!

Wolfrace Mantis:



Wolfrace Ikon Plus:



BK 158:




What you all think??

Don't get big 'open gap' wheels in 17 if you want them to look big.
Go for 18's

I do not want 18"s, but all those spokes go right to the edge, so they wont look small!

Think it's a decision between the mantis and the 158, as they do look similar!!

u dont really need 45 offset tho really if ur having psg wide arch kit, so long as the arches are cut back u got more space behind them! i think 18s look soo much betta behind these arches than 17, worth paying extra money i think for larger 18s
