Oh...! Did want to stay with 17s as when I bought car there where 4 new Tyres on it and could just swap them over. And thought the ride would be quite hard compared with what it is now ?

you could always get yours refurbed to look like those, most companys should be able to do a similiar finish would be cheaper than new wheels i would have thought

Put those alongside genuine ones, and you'll see why those are poor replica's.

I know I was drinking last night, but is it just me or do they wheels like they are wide as hell.
looks like you would need a 325 tyre, and that would be with a stretch.

Maybe am still drunk  :ashamed:
