Crap if I'm honest but I don't drive it everyday so who cares.

Since getting a house it's been relegated to fun car and we have a boring sensible car for day to day duties

well some times its gotta be done. least it wil cost less-repairs-fuel! my 1st rs turbo came with 15s but i changed them to 17s(boy racer influence i think) and really regretted swopping them. i lost handling and speed i was thinkin off goin bk to 17s on the 5 but bk lane driving is all we have over here so i think im stickin with the clio 16v wheels i have on it.

For handling I'd stick with 15's. We used 15's on our old 2i and they worked very well. Only reason the RS is on 17's is because the 15's wouldn't go over my ST170 brake conversion
