Looks Great :thumbsup:

Does anyone think it exposes the wheels as looking a bit small now? I think it needs a set of big rims :drool:

Has it made a big difference to the ride & handling?

Yea i agree with you there the stock wheels are kinda too small. I will be investing in a bigger set of wheels soon, waiting to get paidd n see whether i can afford a decent set otherwise ill waitt. 18's should do it init or should i go for 17???

The handling has definately inprovedd the rides alot bumpier but daz a mina loll wanna get the trd strut brace aswellll.

I am tempted to get some 17's if i can find a decent set a like at a good price, 17's should give it better handling & grip without compromising ride quality to much.

17's would give good handling but i fink i might go for 18's but still decidingg. i want some with a bit of a deep dish look if you know what i mean like T-sport has above with abit of a lip.

looks cool mate,

sorry to be all sensible here but obviously putting 18's or 17's on affects the speedometer. are alot of places able to change it so it reads right?

As smoftah said, when you change the size of your alloy, you must also select the correctly sized tyre so that it is as close to the overall circumference of the original wheel as possible. The commonly held opinion is that anything less than 2.5% difference in overall size is acceptable but obviously the closer to the original size, the better.

A stock T-Sport wheel is 195/55/R16 (circumference = 1950.61mm). I have 18s fitted to my car with 215/40/R18 tyres (circumference = 1976.69mm).

In terms of overall speed, what this means is that when I am on the motorway and my speedo says 70.0mph (assuming the speedo is accurate - which they rarely are) then my actual speed would be 70.94mph. Obviously if I kept the same profile tyres (i.e. 195/55/R18) then I would actually be travelling at 75.73mph.
