   As long as they're wide or have a bit of polished dish, fit under the arches legally, and still are able to have the car dropped low, you'll be onto a winner.
   
   
   There's a few really nice Euro look Saxo's on the progress threads mate, go peek them

   If i was to go euro on a sax id be looking at 14's with a good 3inch dish as being so small would make the dish look huge!

   2 best euro'd saxo on here as 'wassey' and 'AJ-K' check their progress threads out .
   
   To me id say 13" or 14" would be best bet with nice dish on like gibbo said!
   But people also go 15+16 and 'drop' to tuck tyre which looks good.
   Have a look mate but like gibbo told me, best eurod wheels are in diffrent offset (4x100 etc)

   I think 13s are good for Euro look, it makes them look so low

   13" Mini superlites are the king for me

   I disagree with the minilites. No matter how much I LOVE them. I have some on my mini! However I don't feel they fit the arches enough to give a proper euro look. Theres too much of a gap. I'd say 14" -16". 13"s are just a little bit too small :/ Unless you get some high profile tyres?
   
   
   
   Yes it's a mini and not a saxo., and there revvo's and not minilite's! But small wheels and Fat tyres I think look awesome!! and I'd like to see it on a saxo. I think this would be the only way 13" wheels would work! (These are probably 10") But it's just an example!

    Tread protruding the arches however is not legal, so as long as he keeps the tread under the arches it'll all be good
