the width of the tyre maters not one bit so long as they physically fit...

Whats the difference in off-set between the two?

I have to be carefull here as the idiots will be watching.

In my opinion it handled much better on 205 rubber on 3dr trims. and it gripped off the traffic lights quick too.

The prob was I crashed it while they were on the car... lol
