17’s on a Cup....

[Dan Whillock]

I would like to fit 17s to my Cup, but Im worried they may have an effect on the Performance/Handling. Does anybody know if it will?

If they will effect the car Ill be sticking to the Turinis.

 

[David]

yes it will affect ur performance a little.

Theres a cup in solihull that has 17" speedline turinis and he says that there is no difference !! Looks good too !!

Ive got em mate, I found the car tends to tramline a bit more! But in the past Ive put 17s onto a car with 15s std and didnt notice all that much of a diff.

 

[philip]

depends what youre looking for.

If youre after looks, 17" will be better

If youre after performance, replace with 15" and sticky rubber ...

Ask Dannyboy, he hated them, got rid of them so quickly!

try before you buy

some might like them, some might hate them. but theres no denying they look better than smaller rims

Yer but thats all. Im sure theres many cars out there that look better than my gay fiat uno but I like the fact that it has go and is practical. There is nothing on the uno that looks better than another part that would perform better!
