Ive got 17" diablos on my 16v, and at the mo the Im waiting to be booked in at hill power for my blown head. Just wondering if 15 " oz super T or superleggra in a 45 profile would look stupid on a 16v? or am i better off getting the 50 profile? would there be any noticeable difference in acceleration? cheers. ps any pics of 16v with either of these wheels on would be appreicated.

If you reduce the rolling radius by that much, your speedo will be useless.

You may notice an increase in performance as 15" super ls will probably be a lot lighter than your 17s, i cant imagine the gearing making that much difference, but i could be wrong on that.

they might make it look a bit like an r/c racer though..
