Bet it handles like crap ? no as i said ive got 17's on my wagon now and was thinking of going up to 19's for a change, ive a spare set of 19 knocking about and i just wondered what other peoples thoughts were on the subject ;)
steve33 Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 cant help also,17s is what i run ,suppose its just a case of rolling lips under arches is it not ????? if in doubt,get google out !!!!
Jay762 Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 the rolling radius should be kept so shouldnt impact the arches I know Litchfield are recommending 17 or 18inch wheels for high performance vehicles what was the original recommendation for your car 205 60 15 or 205 55 16? if it was I think you would be looking at a 40 side wall 2

Jonny b Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 Paper work for my prodrive performance pack recommend 18's for some reason!! Wouldn't want 19's surely you'd have to run lιke 30 profile to keep the r/radius the same? Can't be arsed to do the math lol

Can't be arsed to do the math lol they have (215/35/19's) all ready so its not all that bad, suppose its just a 30min wheel swap and a drive out with the satnav on to see how far out he speedo is . job for tomorrow i think........well one of them i promised my self a day on a tool hunt in the garage (tardis).... bigger on the inside etc...
Gambit Posted November 10, 2013 Posted November 10, 2013 My garage get's like that. Or if I'm getting mad and have lobbed it and stormed off :D 1
