Cheers I can't put 16's on because of the brakes but I've got lightweight 18's and it feels odd I can only compare the feeling to holding a spinning cycle wheel and turning it off axis

I had the same on the saff and 15's moved around a bit too much and spun up all the time 17's were better than 15's but cheaper than 16" tyres

I'm hoping for 8x17's to be the best compromise.
