16 or 17

[felix16v]

im thinking of getting some bigger wheels for my valver but i dnt no which size to go for. its lowered 30mm all round. dnt want it to sit too high which ive heard is what happens when bigger wheels are fitted.

also if i fit 17" can i lower it anymore without the arches rubbing??

any comments would be helpful!

Personally, Id say 15s.. Heheh.. but, 16s out of the two.

17s are nice, but they will affect performance.. 16s wont as much (specially with the right tyres!)

16"s for sure.

Thats what my valvers on with a -50mm drop and looks spot on!

16s if you want to keep some of the performance, 17s if youre going for looks. mines lowered 35mm on 16s. you can lower it more on 17s. think there are a fair few people have mate.

Yeah it was your valver that made my mind up to definately get 16"s. Dont regret it for a second now, which I know I wouldve with 17"s.....
