So the only reason to get a 15'' Ultraleggera over a 16'' is the price of tyres really (discounting the few grams of weight difference as they're both stupidly light) Thanks for the reply.

Lovely, cheers everyone. I Think I've made up my mind... For this evening at least. 15's it is :) just hoping it wont look too tractor on my prolines until I've saved for coilies!

Ultraleggeras. Win. So light that I'd feel bad filling them with air.

Hankook or rainsports.

Colour coding ftw :) looks good on that colour too.

As will. Says, definitely not red. Any other colour is fine, but you're a bit stuck with colour on a silver car really....

As steve said.... It's impossible to say without testing equipment. Trial and error I'm afraid.

Yes you do have to declare it... If you don't and you have a serious accident, they will probably tell you were to stick it and you'll have to stump it yourself. Terrible terrible idea to not declare mods. There's pretty much no mods that you can make without telling your insurance.

So I understand the idea of having minimum unsprung weight, and a smaller wheel being lighter. But weight aside, why would a 15'' wheel with a 50 profile tyre be better than a 16'' alloy with a 45 profile tyre? When the overall diameter of the tyre/wheel combination is almost identical?

That looks lovely mate. I think I've decided, for now at least... I'll probably change again soon.

^^^^^ superleggera's, not superturismo's.

I think if I go for it, it'll have to be 2118's or superturismo's. If im going to do it, I'm going to do it properly. I read on a post on here that Turini's were 8.7kg. So it is a massive weight saving. I've heard it's 4x and 5x in various places, but either way it's a massive weight saving. I...

Nobody able to help?

It was posted 3 days ago. Lol. In fairness mate, I don't think ktec have sold these for very long so there won't be too many around.

I had a look through the for sale section and there's been a lot of sets of turinis for sale for £400??? Sorry, I haven't made it very clear, £400 for the turini's plus £250 that I would spend on tyres as the fronts need replacing but I like to buy tyres in 4's. As for style, I like the look...

How can you use that argument about the wheels???? You're suggesting that the standard 5- spoke wheels are the ultimate compromise between strength and weight for a track car??? Don't be a tool. You're just arguing for a stupid point for the sake of it.

I'm considering swapping my cup turinis for some 15's. Looking for pictures of 1*2's on 15's please!

Im looking at the possibility of selling my cup turinis as ive been looking at changing to 15's, so I figured I may as well do it now as I am in need of new tyres pretty soon. So I have a few n00b questions for you all. I figure my turini's are worth ~£400 + £250 for tyres. So what are the...

Megapixels means less than nothing, just a number really, as said though, trawl peoples pictures for good angles. You can get some pretty good shots with an average camera.

That's when he had decided on getting standard ones though.... Sorry, wasn't trying to be an arse, just saying he was looking at buying all four if upgrading.

Welcome matey, try and come to some of the south east meets, meet a few folks and learn a load of useful stuff!

What aftermarket speakers would you buy that wanted 20w rms???? Averagely, they're 50-100 rms and therefore vastly underpowered when running off the head unit. If you want bass from front speakers, they have to be well sealed, this is where the biggest gains can be had. 10% equipment, 90%...

He said new shocks all round in his original post.

Amping your door speakers will make a huge difference!!! They just have to be fitted and sealed properly. You can't possibly argue that having four times the rms power wont make a difference. Good quality, amped and well fitted door speakers is all you need.

Crash statistics.

Why not just buy the full system and sell your current one? Recoup some money....

Its quite impressive how you manage to mention this in every one of your posts. Lol.

Lol. What a ridiculous question. I'm assuming most people would ask what car it was before they bought it.

15'', no question. 17's look gash on Clio's, though strangely, these ^^^ look ok.

The difference being, yours actually moves when it's making all this noise.
