   Does anyone have any advice:
   What are the largest rims i could fit to 2001 Saxo Desire, without having to do any bodywork/modifying the arches etc. Cheers

   you aint gunna get much with 250 mate and deffo not wolfrace or dotz, new that is
   
   16s with a 45 profile tire shouldnt rub, if you lowered you may need a 40 profile tire and maybe even take off the inner arch linners but its not that much hassle.
   
   anything bigger and your gunna need the arches rolled back

   I'll have a bit of a scan on ebay. Any specific makes that u guys would recommend. And also what K&N filter would be the best purely for sound, not for improving the performance....
