   I've got a VTS lowered 40mm with gold 15" Monzas. Looks nice and handles superbly. Sometimes think about putting bigger wheels on but i don't wanna fuck up the handling.

   15's look good on a non vt model but i think you should be gettin 16's or 17's on a vtr/s.
   
   thats just my opinion tho

   the vts/gti are great cars because they handle like they are on rails, why throw that away with big wheels? id say the opposite, get big wheels on a 1.1 model but.

   i got a 1.1 mk1 saxo and i got 15" fox evo 3's on it! handles well and looks pretty gud! havent lowered it yet thou, but when i do it will handle even better!
   
   i dunno wot option i'd go for! if i had a vtr or sumthing similar i wud put 17's on it, but if i woz gonna do up a car purely for speed purposes, then i'd stick 15's on it! both in there own rites look gud

    17's look good, but i enjoy driving my car, so decked on 15's all the way. you feel like your going faster too.

    well i would have to say go for 16's and tuck them
    
    nicely up into your arches
    
    then you will have a nice subtle look with handling to
    
    die for
    
    what more could you ask for

    Lowered no less than 40mm and on 15's, it's the perfect combination for any VTR/S, in my opinion of course.
