Yup they were 17"s handling felt quite heavy, but it's certainly driveable no problems there mate. The only time it was heavy was when parking, at standstill etc. But when you're moving you'll have no probs.

Those wheels are OK, but with the big gaps you really need discs on rear and bigger ones on the front otherwise it looks pants IMO

You could just get some drilled and grooved discs off the bay for £40 to make it look better
