They are 16" rims with 195 45 tyres, photos taken with ipad so maybe look bigger lol, am running Koni with sportlines, feels nice and tight but not had chance to really test it as it was booked in for belts so I was scared to drive it, due back today so fun times ahead :clap:

Just seeing if anyone has sold and sent items to Europe, I have just sold my wheels on ebay to someone in Portugal I quickly googled and found wheel courier who quote £95 just wondering if anyone has used someone cheaper, cheers.
