    well its upto u

    factors are

    15" handles alot better and cheaper

    17" look the dogs bollocks but need the car modified abit and dont help with speed or handling

    16's are best bet, they have best of both worlds..

    read the FAQ's on sax-p

    dont want 17's the cars bn lowered 60mm so dun really wanna go mad with arch mods, just as far as i know u can fit 16's with no rubbin as long as the tyre profile is 195/40/16

    might need a little bit of mod nothing too drastic. but the tyres will cost a b-b-b-b-b-b-bomb.

    Get 15's less hassle and look fine.

    15's, cheaper, and they look great on a lowered sax, no need to go any bigger unless thats the looks your after
