I am currently looking for either a set of 7x16in Alloys or some stylish 7x17in alloys

This due to my current MOMO Arrows which are 7.5x17 continously grind my arches and I'm not enjoying this too mich right now

I would like some black/titanium coloured wheels with a polished outer edge but with discussion with Christian he suggested looking at the OZ Superleggeras, does anyone know if they would clear my AP 330mm brake setup?

They do have a different spoke pattern so this may help my cause...

7X17's will still rub a bit mate. I 've had to attack my arches with an angle grinder to sort it and the front still scrubs under very heavy braking. If I change the rims again I may even drop in size to a 16" rim

I had 7x17in Alloys before with very little problem
Do OZ mate the wheels stated above in 16in?

I know of two sets secondhand going that are the darkish grey colour
Would suit the Imperial Blue really well I imagine

Why not get the arches trimmed you nuggart - would be cheaper than yet another set of wheels .

or F-40 reiger kit....loads of arch clearance.

Mike, arches HAVE been trimmed with no joy and are killing my tyres
With the Adjustable TCA's still to do, looks like it will be even worse than it is now

Also, with discussion with various people, the OZ wheels are lighter than the MOMO meaning better handling and acceleration and are only a 7in wide as opposed to the 7.5in I currently have

If you look at my car full on, the Arrows stick out massively and just look odd

Well trim them some more until they fit - it aint rocket science .

The rear arches are trimmed right back to the double skinned part, not going any further than that

And that's with the rear arch spats off the car too
