I should co-co, your current wheels are rubbish . Check the Sapphire pictures thread, this had several cars with 17" / 18" Mos on (you lazy git ).

Yeah they do look spot on, just dont know wether to change them Only reason thinking is that i will need to get new tyres on the car this year so shall i see if i can stretch to new wheels? The pain is the tyres still got a load of tread left on them! Just been on the car for 4 years now and not sure i like the idea of old tyres on performance car

You will need a little bit of minor fettling on some cars, but nothing major. However, as I said, you will be limited to 215/35 x 18 tyres...

they are et35 brought from reyland all i had to do was trim a bit of the arch liner away on the front and they dont rub at all even with people in the back. the wheels have spent more time piled up in the shed than they have on the car tho..
