Hi all,
Im in the process of pricing up some wheels... I just wondered what problems if any I would have If I went up to 17's and if possible 18's....

Also while browsing Konigwheels.com I came across this nice little T-shirt....

Na$ty... I envy you this particular mod! I'm no authority and I'm sure you're aware you need to keep the overall diameter of wheel and tyre the same. This means the bigger the wheel the lower the tyre profile. The rubber could get real expensive!!

Personally I think the more the wheels fill the wheel arches the better the car looks. Purists would say if you go really big with the wheels you should consider lowering the car to keep things looking right. Mmmm..... Now if I could talk Jan out of the double glazing... BTW there,s a load of technical stuff on this on the FAQ list
