I really wish these were 17s Roy, they look abit small still imo side on, even when the tyres will be on them....
Still a HUGE improvement over the standards though..........

I was under the assumption that the 16 & 17" wheels were basically the same centre sections and bigger outer sections for the 17" like they did with comps.

You can get different size centres for the 17" - ones used with a '16' centre (eg BBS 198) and one with a 'true 17' centre (eg BBS 212). The '16' has an extra step in the lip to make it a 17" (and the appearance of a deeper dish, but 'looks' smaller than a 'true 17'.

That's my next job Roy now i've had the rear raised and i have more clearance, some WIDER tyres so it doesn't look stretched also..........
You can now see the difference on the rear how nicely it sits...there's a good inch and half of clearance now....

That just looks so right mate
Wouldn't lowered it too much but a centimeter or two should be perfect.
Love it!

250 is a bargain for the side mouldings.
